Mansfield Bag Two More

Mansfield have signed full backs Andy Owens and Lee Beevers to boost their defence.

Left Back Owens, 22, arrives after rejecting a new deal at Southport, while Right Back Beevers, 28, rejected a new deal at Walsall to sign for the Stags.

Owens was due to sign for Cambridge, but Southport's insistence on a significant compensation fee appears to have scuppered that deal, while Beevers also rejected an approach from Inverness to drop into the Conference.

Bulls News understands that Beevers' right back slot at Walsall will be filled by a former Bull.
