Hull Go Scouting At Shrewsbury

29th April 2006

Colin Murphy, the assistant-manager of Championship club Hull City is an interested spectator for Lincoln City's match at Shrewsbury, which takes place this afternoon.

Murphy is a popular former Lincoln City manager, but today, it appears that his presence is more than a passing interest in his former club. Although Murphy refused to confirm, it is believed that he is scouting for Hull City.

Should this prove correct then the two most obvious players that Murphy will specifically watch are Shrewsbury goalkeeper Joe Hart and Lincoln's defender Gareth McAuley.

Both players were last week named in the PFA's League Two Team of the Season. Ironically, both could have been playing on the same side today had Crewe Alexandra's interest in both players materialised into firm signings.

McAuley, who is a Northern Ireland international, is out of contract at Lincoln in June. A whole of host of clubs has been linked to him, including Sunderland and Leicester City. Meanwhile, Hart is reportedly rated at £1 million by Shrewsbury Town.
