Lincoln boss Peter Jackson has been diagnosed with throat cancer. The 46 year old will take time off next month for treatment but expects to make a full recovery. Dagenham have extended the loan of midfielder Ryan Hall from Crystal Palace for another month.
Chester have sacked assistant manager Jimmy Bone, replacing him with Steve Mungall. Bone followed manager Bobby Williamson across the border in December, but his appointment coincided with their disasterous run of form. Mungall previously spent three months as manager at the club in 2001, beating the Bulls in his first game in charge.
Bury have signed Gillingham defender Efe Sodje on a months loan. The veteran bandana wearing Nigerian has slipped out of favour at Priestfield since Mark Stimson took charge. The Shakers have also released striker James Dean. He was a surprise summer signing from Northwich but made only five starts for the club.
MK Dons have signed Nottm Forest youngster Felix Bastians on a months loan. The German teenager has already spent time on loan at Notts County and Chesterfield this season.
