Fleetwood, of Conf North, have denied paying former Chester player Anthony Barry a four figure weekly wage after they nicked him from under the noses of Wrexham.

Bournemouth are reporting that they will have just 13 fit professionals for Saturday's trip to Crewe.

Darlington have signed Nottm Forest keeper Shane Redmond on loan for a month. The Irish u21 man had four games on loan at Burton earlier this season.
