Cheltenham are expected to confirm the signing of Michael Boulding and his brother Rory after beating Bradford for their services, with Bantams boss Stuart McCall admitting defeat. The 32 year old, whose younger brother seemed destined to be part of any deal, has trained with four different sides this summer but chose Whaddon Road for League One football.
Huddersfield are reported to be lining up a £700,000 double swoop on Ipswich pair Alan Lee and Gary Roberts. Walsall are considering a move for ex-Bull Trevor Benjamin according to the Express and Star. Benjamin spent eight games on loan at the Bescot prior to his Edgar Street stay, scoring twice, but will play for Chester again tomorrow night on trial.
Rotherham's problems may not just be financial. The pitch at the Don Valley stadium was blasted by Derby boss Paul Jewell, who called the uneven surface 'turgid'. Cambridge's board has been criticised by the fans after accepting £350,000 for the sell on clause they held on Dave Kitson only a week before a £5.5million move for the player would have netted the club £800,000.
Brighton have signed Ipswich full back Matt Richards on a six month loan. The 23 year old played 33 times for the Seagulls on loan last season, and has over 150 Tractorboys appearances to his name. Ex-Bull (I guess that's now apt) Trent McClenahan played for Australia as they lost 1-0 to China in an Olympics warm up yesterday.
Leeds have had a £300,000 offer for Wolves striker Jay Bothroyd accepted, and have reputedly offered the player £4,000 a week. Ex-Bull Paul Parry has signed a new two year deal at Cardiff. Swindon have failed in a bid to take Gillingham midfielder Kevin Maher to the County Ground.
Carlisle expect striker Joe Garner to leave after Nottm Forest triggered a release clause with a £1.14million bid. The 20 year old is now expected to be targeted by several clubs, with Carlisle receiving only half the fee due to clauses in the contract due to the player and former club Blackburn.
Leicester have offloaded forward Louis Dodds to Port Vale on a free transfer. The 21 year old spent last season on loan at Lincoln, scoring nine times in 44 games. Bradford are the latest side linked to Anthony Elding, as Carlisle boss John Ward denies any interest in the former Stevenage man.
