Mansfield have added defender Ryan Tafazolli to their squad on a one year deal. The 21 year old was released by Southampton last summer and spent last season with a variety of sides including a lengthy trial at Southend. Dartford have signed Fulham keeper Marcus Bettinelli on a month long loan spell. The 20 year old played a handful of games for the Cottagers' reserve side last term.
Portsmouth's Supporters Trust have written an open letter to Balram Chanrai asking him to be 'realistic' in his demands over the club's £17million debt to him. The Trust say Chanrai's valuation of Fratton Park is way above their own offer of £2.75million. Administrator Trevor Birch has told the press the Trust will also have to renegotiate downwards the £12million in settlements agreed with players and former staff.
