News Round-Up


Worcester have agreed a deal with developer St Modwen to extract themselves from their ground building deal. Their new stadium has been in limbo for years with the developer committed to only have started the stadium works by this summer, rather than having needed to build it, and the club faced a massive tax bill over the deal. It is currently unclear what terms have been agreed, and how much of the remaining £1.3million of the deal the club will retain to build a new ground.

Grimsby director John Fenty, who has been financially propping the club up in recent seasons, says he will put more money into the club than last season in order to build on their play-off failure this term. Lincoln are reported in the local press to have rejected a £15,000 offer from Crewe for striker Vadaine Oliver. The Lincolnshire Echo says the club want £20,000 plus add-ons for the out of contract former Sheff Weds man.

Cambridge have signed released Grimsby defender Ian Miller on a two year deal. The former Darlington man, 29, made 28 appearances for the Mariners last season. The Conference have confirmed that the fixture list will be released on Friday, July 5th. Further announcements are expected this week with the AGM at the weekend.

Lincoln have signed Macclesfield defender Nat Brown on a one year deal. The 32 year old ended the season on loan at Sincil Bank, having previously played for manager Gary Simpson at Moss Rose. Mansfield are reported to be subject to legal action by two former directors to recover loans made to the club prior to current owner John Radford's arrival. The pair say they had an agreement with Radford that he would repay them when the club regained it's Football League status.
