News Round-Up


Having been taken over by their Supporters Trust earlier in the year, Wycombe plan to raise working capital for the club by consolidating the existing share base and issuing new shares. They aim to raise a total of £1.2million, and are asking fans to commit £20 a month over the next four years to meet the sum. The Trust say they are close to making the club break even, but aim to raise the first £250,000 by the end of the current season.

Droylsden manager Dave Pace has told the BBC the club is £280,000 in debt. The Evo-Stik Premier side was relegated from Conf North in the summer. Nuneaton have signed Colchester forward Freddy Ladapo on loan for an initial month. The 20 year old spent the first month of the season on loan at Woking, making one start and three sub appearances.

Woking have signed winger Charles Banya on loan from Fulham for an initial month. The 20 year old is yet to make his first team debut after being with the Premier League side since he was 12. Aldershot have signed Portsmouth defender Dan Butler on loan for an initial month, and taken on Reading keeper Jonathan Henly until January. 19 year old Butler made a string of appearances for Pompey during their financial troubles, while Henly, also 19, signed a new Royals deal in the summer.

Southport midfielder Bruce Irie-Bi has been ruled out for three weeks with an ankle problem. Chester have signed two teenage players from Bolton on loan for an initial month. Midfielder Chris Lester is a Northern Ireland u21 international, while striker Conor Wilkinson cost the Trotters a fee from Millwall in the summer. 

Eastwood Town have been issued with a winding up petition from the taxman over an outstanding £160,000 bill. The club says the sum relates to 40 former staff members that were never issued P45's when they left, and the error was compounded when the club started using a new tax reference when the current board took over.
