Paul Murray Set to Sign for Gretna
BBC - Ex-Carlisle player set for Gretna
Gretna are set to make their first summer signing with former Carlisle United midfielder Paul Murray arriving on a one-year deal.
Murray is an ex-England Under-21, 'B' and youth international.
Gretna director of club development Mick Wadsworth, told the club website: ?Paul is a terrific player and will be a great asset to the club.
"His determination matches his ability and I know he will bring a lot to the Gretna squad."
The Black and Whites are in the process of strengthening their squad for their first-ever season of SPL football and Wadsworth - who gave him a debut as a 17-year-old - added: "Paul has played at the highest level and I?m delighted to be working with him again."
He then had spells at Queens Park Rangers, Oldham Athletic and Southampton before following Wadsworth to Portuguese side Beira-Mar.
However, after suffering a serious knee injury in Portugal, he returned to Carlisle and made 14 appearances last season, scoring one goal.
Murray has also played alongside Rio Ferdinand and Frank Lampard after breaking into the international set-up in 1996. BBC

Brighton Argus - Albion eye ex-Wales No.1 for coaching role - By Andy Naylor
Paul Jones has joined the race to succeed John Keeley as Albion's new goalkeeping guru.
The former Welsh international No. 1 has spoken with the Seagulls about the coaching post vacated by Keeley last month.
Jones, 40, was released by Queens Park Rangers at the end of the season after playing for them in the Championship until October.
The Bognor-based custodian also played for Southampton and Wolves, served Liverpool and Watford on loan and was capped 44 times by Wales.
Jones has recently been helping to coach his country's young goalkeeping prospects.
He faces competition for the Albion job from Sompting-based former MK Dons manager Stuart Murdoch, who has also been interviewed.
Keeley quit to become Portsmouth's Academy goalkeeping coach from July....

BBC - Sheron is Shakers new youth boss
Former Manchester City striker Mike Sheron has been appointed as Bury's new youth team manager.
Sheron, who had been in charge of Bury's centre of excellence at Gigg Lane, replaces Chris Beech in the role.
Beech resigned following a successful stint in charge of the Shakers' youth side, which saw five players given first-team debuts last season.
Sheron, 35, started work for Bury after a playing career which also included spells at Barnsley, Stoke and QPR. BBC
New re Ex-QPR, Wes Daly
Daly's Dons deadline - Wimbledon Guardian - By Sami Mokbel
Terry Brown admits he is starting "to run out of patience" with midfielder Wes Daly as the former QPR man continues to stall on committing his future to AFC Wimbledon.
The Dons manager has made it clear to Daly that he wants the diminutive midfielder to stay at Kingsmeadow as his new look squad try to sustain a promotion assault next season.
However, Daly has made it clear he wants a move to a full-time club and will only stay at the Dons if he is not offered that chance by a club at a higher level.
And now Brown has revealed that he is becoming increasingly annoyed at Daly's delay: "I'm running out of patience with the whole Daly situation to be honest. I speak to his agent regularly and he always tells me he is going to phone me back but never does.
"I'm going to give him a deadline of early next week for him to make a decision."
Should Daly decide his future is away from Kingsmeadow the club would be entitled to a fee as the 23-year-old is still on contract. Wimbledon Guardian

Joe Cole broke the deadlock after 36 minutes, turning sweetly to volley home Peter Crouch's flick.
Crouch doubled England's lead eight minutes after the break when he headed home a superb Beckham cross.
Beckham then provided a far post cross for Michael Owen to add England's third after 61 minutes. ... BBC
