Bye Bye Lucas

Last updated : 26 January 2004 By Andrea Barnes
Homegrown kepper David Lucas has been told by manager Brown that he can leave the club, after failing to keep his spot when Gould arrived at Deepdale.

And the reason is because he wants to promote 20 year old Andy Lonergan! He put in a transfer request at christmas because he was sick and tired of being number 3.

Another reason has to be Lucas' successful spell on loan at Sheffield Wednesday.

Craig said about the situation: "I can understand it if those who are not playing get frustrated.

"I have had regular conversations with Chris Turner at Wednesday during David's loan period and I have told him that if he wanted him then let us know."
