News Round-Up


Aldershot boss Andy Scott says there were 'simply too many holes in the ship' for him to stop the club from being relegated back to the Conference. Loanee Sonny Bradley told the BBC that the comments of Scott and keeper Jamie Young last week about players not pulling their weight left some of the squad angry and deflated the mood in the camp.

Bury boss Kevin Blackwell says he will walk away from the club if it starts to fail to pay the wage bill, saying "that's not the way to run a football club and I won't stay if it happens." Morecambe have confirmed they have released captain Will Haining due to budget cuts. The 30 year old defender is the second player to be released due to falling gates at the club.

Torquay have parted company with manager Martin Ling after he missed the second half of their campaign due to illness. A club statement says the decision was made purely on footballing grounds. Chesterfield have axed four of their backroom staff with manager Paul Cook expected to bring in his own people. Assistant boss Tommy Wright and coach Mark Crossley are joined by the kitman and development coach.

Bristol Rovers have released former Bulls winger Joe Anyinsah. The former Bristol City trainee has spent the last two years with the club. Former Bulls loanee Jennison Myrie-Williams has been named in the PFA Team of the Year for League two. The Port Vale wideman has netted 11 times this season.

Llanelli's players say they were owed around £30,000 in wages by the club when it went bust last week. Captain Lloyd Grist says he had not been paid his £300 wages for 13 weeks. Southend boss Phil Brown called in Jeremy Kyle to do his weekend team talk. The human baiter failed to impress, with the Shrimpers losing 1-0 to Morecambe. 

Chester have opted to make the post of CEO redundant in a shake up of their off-field workings, leaving incumbent Pat Cluskey redundant. Luton have handed defender Steve McNulty a new two year deal. The former Fleetwood defender signed a short term deal in January, making 20 appearances.

The local press are reporting that Scunthorpe are to appoint Gainsborough chairman Peter Swann as their new chairman in the near future. Swann failed in his bid to buy the Conf North side's ground, prompting him to quit the club.
