Torquay's ageing grandstand has had its capacity cut by 250 due to safety regulations. This has had a big impact on the away seating area, with next visitors Bradford being offered only 78 seats with the Gulls saying they have cut 120 from the visiting allocation and 130 from the home section. Lincoln have signed Celtic striker Ben Hutchinson on a season long loan. The 22 year old had spells at Dundee and Swindon last term, scoring three times in 24 games.
Ex-Bull Rob Purdie's comeback from his season-long injury was cut short yesterday when he was pulled out of a reserve game for Oldham against Burnley due to injury concerns. He remains on the transfer list at Boundary Park after failing to make his first team debut since signing last summer. The reformed Chester club won't get a penny of Jon Walters' move from Ipswich to Stoke as the old club held the sell-on clause. The deal could have been worth £500,000 to the Deva outfit.
