News Round-Up

Barnet boss Lawrie Sanchez has denied press reports that he is to have an interview for the vacant managerial job with Northern Ireland. An official club statement said the former Wycombe manager was 'fully committed' to the club. Accrington say they have exceeded their expectations for their share sales. They have sold 400 of the £100 shares after initially targetting selling 200 by Christmas.

Port Vale's Supporters Club held a meeting last night where those present voted in favour of calling an EGM to remove the current board. Fans will organise demonstations for their weekend home match with Aldershot that include a protest inside the ground after the match. Swindon striker Leon Clarke says he still has no future with the club after returning to the County Ground after scoring nine times in 16 games on loan at Chesterfield.

Northampton have terminated the contract of striker Bas Savage early after new boss Aidy Boothroyd told him his deal would not be extended beyond January. The 29 year old failed to score in ten appearances with the Cobblers. Bristol Rovers have announced they have signed all legal agreements for the redevelopment of the Memorial Ground. The Pirates will move near to a nearby university campus, while a Sainsburys store will be built on their existing site along with housing. Plans will go for public consultation in the new year.

Plans for a stadium for Cornwall have been shelved by the local council on the back of Truro City's financial problems. Club owner Kevin Heaney insists the plans are still on track but the council say they cannot commit to the project due to the current uncertainty. Southend are reported to have agreed a fee with Swindon to make the current loan move of midfielder Michael Timlin permanent in the January window. The sum is rumoured to be £50,000.

Former Bull Matt Clarke has made his first signing as boss at Evesham, taking fellow ex-Bull Neil Mackenzie on non-contract terms. The veteran midfielder quit full-time football earlier in the year and had been playing for St Neots. Kettering are reported to be in talks with two parties over a potential takeover of the club.

Oxford have signed Australian striker Matt Fletcher on a short term deal. The 19 year old was with Sunderland until the summer and has represented his country at u19 and u20 levels. The Conference has asked Darlington to explain why they have not paid five players at all, and only paid part payments to several other payments. The five include ex-Bull Kris Taylor, who has so far refused to accept a pay cut. There are unconfirmed reports that the club has also been handed a transfer embargo after failing to pay for loan players.

Bradford are selling car parking spaces at their ground for a whopping £125 each for their remaining 13 home matches. Macclesfield have returned loan duo Scott Boden and Dan Gray back to Chesterfield. Striker Boden failed to score in eight first team matches, while midfielder Gray played just twice in his month with the Silkmen.
