Motherwell`s Danny Murphy joined Dunfermline on a short-term loan in October 2007. The former Cork City defender had struggled to break into the `Well first team that season under Mark McGhee and linked up at the Pars with Stephen Kenny whose knew him from the Eircom League.

His loan initially saw him stay at East End Park until 7th January but that was later extended to 27th January.

Danny made the breakthrough into senior football with Queen`s Park Rangers for whom he made 25 league and cup appearances between 2000 and 2003. From there Murphy spent a time on trial with Wycombe Wanderers before joining Swindon for a short spell in the early part of the 2003-04 campaign.

Danny was on the move again soon after joining non-league Margate before crossing the Irish Sea to sign for Cork City. It was a move that was the making of the player as he quickly established himself as one of the finest players in the Irish League, winning recognition by claiming a place in the annual `Team of the Season` two years running. He became an integral part of the Cork City side during that time and earned the moniker `The Cockney Rebel` from supporters who idolised him during his time at Turners Cross.

London born, the full-back joined up with Motherwell on a two-and-a-half year deal on New Years Day 2007.
