Russell Duncan

[Yngwie]

After 18 months in Shadowlands, Russeldinho is one of 4 players just released by County. He was never in the managers plans there, which makes you wonder why he was signed in the first place. His last game was in the 1-4 home defeat to Raith Rovers in the league cup, in which he got one of his rare goals.

 

What next for him? At 32 he still has a bit of life left in him. Elgin, Peterhead, Forfar, or Highland League?

[CaleyD]

Think he was sidelined with injury for most of the time.

[SMEE]

I didnt realise he was only 32. Probably easily still good enuff to do a job in the first division.

[The Mantis]

Rejoin Pele at Formartine Utd!

Seriously, could play div 1 or 2 for a while yet.

[Kingsmills]

Could certainly do a job for Elgin or Peterhead.

[KingBeastie]

maybe a paper round?

Heard that Russell is going to turn out for Brora for 3 games, canna see it being permanent but you never know.. i think he's better thaN HL.

[CaleyD]

That would be a strange one as I'm fairly certain you can't play for 3 different clubs in the same season.....unless there's some loophole which would allow him to play as a trialist.

[Guest Mahonio]

Wick?

Barry Wilson is gaffer there and has played with Russell so don't be surprised if Academy do sign him.

[caley100]

Seemingly he's a free agent and that HL rules allow it? he told me himself mind...

[CaleyD]

If he's a free agent then signing for the HL outside the window is not an issue.  Just that if he only plans to play a couple of games before moving on again then he would then possibly fall foul of the "2 clubs a season" max rule that I have a very vague recollection of.

Its a cut and paste from a legal eagle site.

 

Currently under the FIFA Transfer Regulations a football player is unable to play for more than three teams in one season. This applies whether the player has been transferred or simply is on loan with that club.

This also applies regardless of what country that player has plied his trade in, whether that is in Europe, Africa or South America. As long as a player has represented a club in a league under the adjudication of a FIFA Member Association they will only be able to play for three different clubs.

However, this does mean that a football player is free to represent a total of three different clubs in any league in the world over the course of one season.

 

As can be seen the rule is three teams in a season so Russell could play a game or three then join another club.

That would make more sense....allowing for a move during each window.

Could be joined by Grant and Rossco given the players Adams is trying to source.
