THE Football League has this morning moved to clarify the reasons behind its decision to block Eddie Howe’s bid to sign a second emergency player.
The league confirmed that it had received medical records for Cherries’ injured players, but went on to claim one of those players then played 90 minutes of their 0-0 draw with Port Vale on Saturday.
The Echo understands that player is Liam Feeney. The league therefore deemed Cherries’ request for emergency cover to be unnecessary.
