Rochdale striker Chris Dagnall is the latest target for Peterboro, according to the press. The 12 goal striker is out of contract in the summer so the Spotland outfit may opt to cash in during the January window. Such is the disinterest in Darlington's season that their supporters club will not run a coach to an away game for the first time in 21 years for their trip to Torquay after just eight people signed up for the trip.

Burton reserve keeper Shane Redmond will miss two months after breaking his hand in their match with Rotherham at the weekend. Current no.1 Artur Krysiak currently has a hip problem, leaving the Brewers short. Bournemouth also face a keeper problem with Shwan Jalal picking up a calf muscle injury at the weekend to add to an existing ankle problem. Their only other keeper is 18 year old Dan Thomas, who made his League debut in replacing Jalal at the weekend, while their transfer embargo is likely to block a loan keeper.

A late bid to save King's Lynn has failed, with the club likely to pass into history tomorrow. Shareholder Michael Chinn has walked away from a proposed investment after delays at board level. The club have just three players left after most of the squad walked out last week. Northwich owner Jim Rushe has admitted he had to transfer list the squad due to low gates. Just a week after getting 3,500 for their FA Cup match, their league game drew just 451.

Rotherham have extended the contract of former Yeovil midfielder Gary Roberts until the end of the season. Ex-Bull Steve Guinan is to undergo a double hernia operation that will see him miss at least a month of the season. In an interview with the PFA, Guinan says the Cobblers are now looking to a mid-table place rather than instant promotion this season.

Chester's FA Trophy home game with Fleetwood has been brought forward to Friday night after Police, who struggled to cope with a four man on-pitch demonstration, deemed a Saturday afternoon too dangerous. Macclesfield are to convert £800,000 of their debt into shares in the club. Most of their £1.74million debt is owed to board members, mainly majority shareholders Amar and Bashar Alkadhi.
