Beckwith Set For Cobblers Switch

Released Bulls defender Dean Beckwith is about to sign for Northampton, according to Sky Sports.

The former Gillingham man will follow Steve Guinan to Sixfields after previous reported interest from League One sides failed to materialise. In four years at Edgar Street he played 152 times for the Bulls, scoring five goals.

Update: Beckwith has signed a one year deal with the Cobblers, with a one year appearance-based option. Manager Stuart Gray told their official site: "I am delighted to have secured Dean. He is a good age, has a good amount of games under his belt and he is a player who has impressed me. He is another one who has won promotion from this level before so he knows what it takes. He is also a player with a decent fitness record and is hungry to take both his career and the club forward."
