Murray on Target for Swindon
Saturday, 17th Dec 2011 21:01

Striker Ronan Murray netted the second goal of his loan spell at Swindon as the Robins beat Morecambe 3-0 at the County Ground.

The Irishman, who is with Paolo Di Canio's club for a month, netted in the 76th minute having come on as a sub 20 minutes earlier.

Elsewhere, Andy Drury's 93-day loan with Crawley ended with a 1-1 draw at Crewe, the Blues midfielder providing the cross for Matt Tubbs’s goal.

The 28-year-old went through his entire spell without being on the losing side, making 15 starts and scoring four goals.

Drury will return to Town this week with the clubs set to hold talks regarding a permanent switch to the Broadfield Stadium.

Shane O'Connor is yet to feature for his loan side Port Vale, while Town’s other on-loan player, striker Tamás Priskin, watched today’s match between the Blues and Derby from the Portman Road directors’ box as he was unable to play for the Rams under the terms agreed when he moved to Pride Park last month.

It's good to read that Murray scored. He needs to push into the Swindon starting 11 and start hitting goals regularly to show he would be worth a place in the Ipswich squad. I am not convinced he will make it, but the loan gives him a chance to prove himself, albeit at two leagues lower.

Crawley can pay a decent fee for Drury is they want him, otherwise we'll have him back as a squad player (especially now Healy has left). It seems his loan has been a big success, so I don't see why we should take a big loss on the £150K we paid.
