Please read and consider pushing this issue. Because Cameron Stewart played half a game for Hull, we stand to lose him for the last 4 games of the season, plus play-offs (if applicable).
The arguments are set out below. I know some will just see this as a chance for some innocent fun and zany japery - but please, let the serious-minded among you see the potential injustice and apply a little solidarity and strength of numbers to this.

Just have to live with it, suppose we're lucky to get him until then with the 'emergency' loan loophole.
What actually defines an emergency anyway, wasn't it supposed to be for if a team lost a keeper unexpectedly or something?
I know we've been crying out for a winger but was it really an emergency…
Just like the other loopholes we exposed pre -15. it will probably get closed now pretty quickly.

Townsend played for four clubs in 2010/11 season but I don't recall any problems mentioned back then.
Also three the following season.

Stoopo, he only appeared for Spurs in the FA Cup in 10/11 and League Cup and Europe in 11/12.
More technicalities...

Apparently the 93 day period can be extended - entirely at the discretion of the Executive. Remarkably, this possibility exists, despite Jonty's learned opinion that there's nowt that can be done about it. Go figure, huh.

Bryan - Stewart has only played in the league cup for Hull this season.

Good point Stoopo, looks like its one rule for Leeds and one for everybody else as usual.

There are ways that Leeds can make him eligible for the rest of the season.
