Another signing on the cards

Gillingham defender Dean Beckwith is rumoured to have sealed a contract with Hereford United.

21-year-old Beckwith has experience in the Conference having spent a loan period with Dagenham & Redbridge, and featured in the 1-1 draw at Edgar Street in October 2003.

He was released by Gillingham earlier this month having come through the youth system at Priestfield, and spent a spell on loan at Margate last season.

Beckwith stands at six foot three, and an announcement regarding his signing is expected later this week.
