News Round Up

Peterboro are set to offload Josh Low to Cheltenham after the midfielder impressed Robins boss Keith Downing playing for the reserves. The Posh will also see goalkeeper Shwan Jalal off to Bournemouth and striker Liam Hatch on loan to Darlington before the Monday deadline. They also, ominously, expect at least two more new faces in addition to the signing of winger Dominic Green. One of those is expected to be Ebbsfleet striker John Akinde. The club have received a £140,000 offer 'from an unnamed club' for the player and will put it to a vote of their 35,000 owners.

Lincoln have given up on Romanian striker Adrian Patuela after a last-ditch offer for the player would have broken League rules. A fan offered to buy the player for the €50,000 asking price then lease him to the club in contravention of FL and FA rules. A local lottery winner is to bolster Chesterfield's coffers by £200,000 after paying them to name a stand after her. The Karen Child Kop will come into being next season after the former checkout worker followed up her purchase of an executive box at Old Trafford.

Chester have denied ever planning a press conference for Wednesday afternoon, making an official statement - their first for weeks - saying "Supporters are advised that the Football Club does not recognize any unofficial web sites as a source of reliable information." Supporters have kindly pointed out that the official site has ten players named on the squad list that have long since departed in a pot/kettle scenario.

Worcester's state of the art new home will be significantly less so after it was revealed the Conf North side was £2million in debt. They will have only £5million for their edge of the city stadia, news that leaves shareholders fuming and calling for the board's removal.
