News Round-Up


Former Bull Richard Brodie has been released by Aldershot by mutual consent as he want to return north. The much travelled striker netted five times for the club, the last being in September, and has signed for National North side Stockport. A former employee of Dover has been charged with stealing a five-figure sum from the club. The 44 year old has been bailed until March.

Cheltenham say they will not renew their groundshare deal with Gloucester City if they regain their Football League status. The deal, originally agreed at £45,000 a season, is needed by Gloucester for one more season with them hoping to move into their own stadium for the 2017/18 season, but the state of the Whaddon Road pitch has been criticised recently.

A potential takeover at Woking has fallen through after more than two months of negotiations. Ashley Read, described as a 'sports retailer', was aiming to buy out majority shareholder Peter Jordan, who had already stated he was not interested in selling up. Former Bulls loanee Tom Nichols has left Exeter for Peterboro for an undisclosed fee. The 22 year old has signed a four and a half year deal at London Road.

James Baxendale has joined Mansfield on a permanent basis after a brief loan spell. The 23 year old has played five times for the Stags since joining from Walsall. Southern League South & West side Wimborne Town have confirmed they have axed their £1,250 weekly playing budget after finding a six figure debt. A fundraising drive since last week's announcement is reported to have generated around £300 a month in pledges.

A BBC investigation into the Council loan at Northampton claims that £600,000 of the £10.25million loan was spent on rebuilding former club chairman David Cardoza's house. Cardoza was arrested last week as part of a criminal inquiry by the Police to find out what happened to the money, with the BBC having scoured court documents and papers dealing with the liquidation of various companies.
