News Round-Up


Rochdale chairman Chris Dunphy says he will "budget for the worst" after the attendance at Spotland dropped to 1,700 at the weekend. Rochdale are 12th in the League Two table, three points short of a play-off spot, with Dunphy acknowledging that if they hadn't sold players in recent seasons they would be "running on empty".

Prior to last night's match, Luton had midfielder Jonathan Smith recalled by York. The Minstermen called for the return of the 26 year old, after five matches for the Hatters, due to Peterboro recalling their own loanee. Southend chairman Ron Martin has told the club's AGM that "it's not easy" getting the money together each month to pay the wage bill, saying he will not cut it as the club needs to win promotion to League One to improve their finances.

Coventry are reported to have made enquiries into moving to Nene Park if their rent dispute with the owners of the Ricoh Arena is not resolved. The 6,500 capacity stadium would be filled entirely by the club's season ticket holders. Former FA Trophy opponents Hucknall Town are in crisis after their chairman and management team quit the club over their ongoing financial problems. Since their Conf North peak in 2009 they have sunk two divisions and are battling against a third relegation.
