Northampton have completed the signing of Burton striker Shaun Harrad for an undisclosed fee. The 24 year old has signed a two and a half year deal and takes over the no.9 shirt vacated by ex-Bull Steve Guinan. Burton are set to sign Birmingham winger Nathan Redmond on a months loan. The 16 year old became the second youngest player to play for Birmingham when he came on as a sub in August.
Woking have appointed Garry Hill as their new manager. The Conference veteran has been out of a job since leaving Rushden nearly two years ago. Torquay have rejected a bid from a League One side for defender Mark Ellis, saying it was nowhere near their valuation for the former Bolton trainee.
Chesterfield have signed defender Jarvan Vidal on loan from Man City. The 21 year old right back had a spell with Grimsby on loan in 2008. Stockport are reported to be interested in released Chesterfield striker Martin Gritton. The player himself has acknowledged receiving several offers for his services. Sheff Weds have confirmed making an approach for Notts County's Lee Hughes, plus his teammate Craig Westcarr.
Lincoln have signed Sunderland goalkeeper Trevor Carson on a months loan. The 22 year old had a 20 game loan spell with Chesterfield two seasons ago. Burton appear to have ended their interest in midfielder Bryan Hughes after he appeared for Grimsby in a trial match. The veteran's short term deal at the Pirelli Stadium has expired.
Kidderminster have put star striker Chris McPhee up for sale with their cash crisis ongoing. The former Brighton trainee has scored nine times this season prompting a cash offer from Crawley, but the player turned the move down.
