U`S TRY AGAIN FOR McVEIGH

CAMBRIDGE boss Roy McFarland has admitted he will try to sign Tottenham striker Paul McVeigh, on loan until the end of the season.

The only problem for McFarland is that he is still searching for a centre half and he is wary of using up a loan swoop on Northern Ireland international McVeigh. The player would almost certainly jump at the chance of some first team football, after being transfer-listed at White Hart Lane.

The young striker saw a temporary transfer to the Abbey Stadium collapse when it had seemingly been completed, a short while ago, but the deal could be resurrected.

"I want to keep my options open as, if I bring in McVeigh, I am snookered in terms of the loan situation," said McFarland. "Before the deadline, I may sign, and hopefully will sign, Paul McVeigh and we can have a look at him until the end of the season, as the boy has something."
