Skard Ineligible
By Aston
November 12 2005
Vemund Brekke-Skard will not be able to play for Town this year, despite reports saying he may be able to play.

The Norwegian FA have cleared the 24-year-old to play in England but it appears he will not be able to play for Town until January.

 

Town chief executive Derek Bowden:  “As things stand, Vemund is not allowed to play either for the reserves against Spurs on Monday or Coventry City next Saturday.

 

“We can only get his registration transferred from Norway when the window re-opens as he is considered a professional by the Norwegian FA. If he was regarded as an amateur by the Norway FA and the English FA ratified that then he would be able to play.”
