Micky Adams hasn't given up on bringing in a loan signing yet.

City have asked the Football League to reconsider the idea now that Brian Deane is out injured for approximately 6 weeks, along with Scowcroft and Benjamin.

On top of that Tommy Wright has not been well this week, and City have now submitted all the evidence to the Football League to try and justify why they should be allowed to take a player on, even though we are still officially in administration.

Unfortunately Micky's way of funding this seem to have gone askew with Lewis refusing to go to Swindon, and a loan deal which would have seen Royce join up with Taylor at Hull falling through as terms could not be agreed.

Tell us what you think about this in our FFS Fans Forum.
