Darlington will receive a summer cash boost after Elton John confirmed a gig at their stadium. A 20,000 sell-out will generate a six figure sum for the overspending club. Leeds are to name an additional coach to their backroom staff prior to the FA Cup match at Edgar Street, with 63 year old Dave Bassett taking a much lighter role than predecessor Gus Poyet.
Notts County have signed teenage striker Craig Lindfield from Liverpool on a months loan. The 19 year old was in the same FA Youth Cup winning side as new Bull Robbie Threlfall. Grimsby's new stadium will not be subject to a planning inquiry. The decision means that the plan only needs to be approved at local level and will cut a year out of the process.
Barnet have extended the loan of teenage Charlton midfielder Josh Wright for an extra month. The Bees have not lost in nine games with the player in their side. Brentford have announced losses of just £60,896 for last season. The losses were stemmed by the £700,000 combined sales of three players, and the club are hoping a move from Griffin Park will stabilise their finances.
