Port Vale's Supporters Club have nominated four people to form a new board should they get their wish to oust the current board. Two of the four are former club directors, one is the current Supporters Club chairman, and the other is the wife of TV commentator Gerald Sinsadt, who was previously a Commercial Manager at the club. Meanwhile, the local press has claimed that the club have tried to 'buy' the £150,000 shareholding of Blue Sky to use to vote for the existing board. The shares were claimed to have been voided in December, but an email last week offers to buy the shares for £1 and then pay for them 'to avoid legal action'.
Kettering's scoreboard operation expects the sack after using the scoreboard to call for chairman Imraan Ladak to leave the club during last night's shock win over Gateshead. The anti-Ladak message was followed by the message "I'm getting sacked in the morning". Elsewhere in the Conference, Wrexham slipped off the top of the table in losing 1-0 at Forest Green with Fleetwood taking top spot after beating Braintree 3-1.
Conf North side Histon have released striker Omer Riza as a cost-cutting measure. The former Shrewsbury forward was the club's top earner and was axed due to falling income at the club. Former Rotherham boss Ronnie Moore is to apply for the Accrington job. Stanley first team coach Mark Patterson is the current bookies favourite for the job, with Sligo Rovers manager Paul Cook, the former Wolves midfielder, second on the list.
Northampton are trialling defender Chris Doig. The Scot was released from a short term deal at Aldershot last month and previously spent two years at Sixfields, winning promotion in 2006. The Football League have agreed to move next season's League One and Two play-off matches forward a week to accomodate the 2013 Champions League final, shortening the season by a week. The Championship match will remain in it's usual Bank Holiday Monday slot.
Macclesfield have released goalkeeper Steve Collis and former Bulls striker John Grant after their six month deals expired. Keeper Collis made just one JPT appearance for the Silkmen but will continue to train with them. Grant, now 30, made only five sub appearances as he struggled for fitness. Cambridge have beaten off a couple of League Two sides to sign Welling striker Andy Pugh. The 22 year old has 15 goals to his name in Conf South this season and cost £15,000.
Barnet council have passed the resolution calling on them to settle their differences with the club. The Tory-led council will now meet with club chairman, and Labour activist, Tony Kleanthous after the resolution was proposed by the council's Labour members. Wimbledon have signed Bognor Regis striker Jason Prior on a two and a half year deal. The 23 year old has just finished a three week trial at Newcastle after netting nearly 100 times for the Ryman South side in two and a half years.
