Danny Murphy (footballer born 1982)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Daniel Thomas "Danny" Murphy (born December 4, 1982 in Southwark, England) is an English-born Irish footballer currently playing for Dunfermline Athletic on-loan from Scottish Premier League side Motherwell.
Murphy, a left full back, previously played for Queens Park Rangers, Swindon Town, Margate and Cork City. He signed for Cork in 2004 and helped win the Eircom League title in 2005. He became a fan favourite at Turners Cross and earned him the sobriquet The Cockney Rebel.
Murphy joined Motherwell on January 1, 2007 when his contract at Cork expired,[1] making his debut as a substitute in the Steelmen's 1-0 defeat by Rangers the following day.[2] By November 2007, Murphy had fallen out-of-favour under new manager Mark McGhee and he was loaned to First Division side Dunfermline Athletic until January.[3]
