Fox signs on loan to play at Barnsley

26 August 2000

Ruel Fox has signed on a short term loan for Albion after completing a medical at 10:00 this morning at the Hawthorns. Fox then travelled to Barnsley by car to join up with the squad, as the team bus had already left by then. Fox is expected to start the match on the bench, but will hopefully see at least some action - and perhaps more on Monday at home.

There was interest in Fox from two other clubs - Bolton and... guess who? Portsmouth! However, the agreements made some time ago still stand, and Fox is expected to make the move permanent next week - Spurs would not have been prepared to agree to the loan if this wasn't going to happen.
