News Round Up

Northampton are hoping that Leeds sell midfielder Brad Johnson in the January window. The Cobblers are entitled to a sell on clause, and earning the fee will mean they will not have to sell players in January. Cheltenham have agreed a payoff with player Craig Armstrong. The veteran is currently on loan at Burton, and he will officially be released on the loan's completion.

Millwall have been linked to Stevenage striker Steve Morison. The 25 year old, who can leave Stevenage on a free in the summer if they don't get promotion, has scored 63 times in 115 games for the club. He started his career as a trainee at Northampton, scoring only three times in 28 games. Tranmere are to take Stoke defender Ryan Shotton on loan for the rest of the season. The 20 year old played 19 times for the club during a three month loan earlier in the season.

Crewe are to extend defender Dennis Lawrence's loan from Swansea until the end of the season. The former Wrexham man has played 11 times for the Railwaymen so far. Peterboro have admitted that one of their striker targets was Arsenal youngster Jay Simpson, who is set to join West Brom. MK Dons will extend the loan of defender Shaun Cummings from Chelsea until the end of the season, while boss Roberto Di Matteo and his staff have signed new two year extensions to their contracts.

No Bulls in the Team of the Week. Leeds, Tranmere, and Scunthorpe have two players each in the team. Brighton have extended the contract of injury plagued defender Martin Hinshelwood until the end of the season. Carlisle have released teenage defender James Earl after he failed to make an impression after signing a six month pro deal in the summer.

Dagenham are under no financial pressure to sell players in the January transfer window. The Bulls have previously been linked to striker Ben Strevens, and a number of their players are being watched by higher graded clubs. Scottish side Livingston have failed to pay their players December's wages. They are currently being sued for £300,000 by their former owner, while other creditors have slammed the club.

Oldham have recalled striker Craig Davies from his loan at Stockport as they have no more games left before the loan was due to expire. Stockport manager Jim Gannon is claimed by the Daily Mail to be on the verge of quitting after falling out with the club's board.
