News Round Up

Merthyr Tyfil's bidders are Bridgend Town. The Welsh League side are cash rich after selling their home ground to a supermarket and plan to take Merthyr's Southern League place with the Martyrs returning to the Welsh pyramid for the first time since 1945. The Bridgend side are to play matches at Brewery Field next season, a 12,000 seat rugby ground in the town that they have purchased a stake in.

Dagenham's out of contract duo Ben Strevens and Sam Saunders are wanted by Brentford. Former Bulls target Strevens scored 13 goals last season, with Saunders netting 14 from midfield. The Daggers have signed Stuart Thurgood on a two year contract. The midfielder left Gillingham in January and finished the season at Grays. Macclesfield chief executive Patrick Nelson is to quit the club to take up a similar role at the Irish Football Association.

Port Vale have interviewed three people for their manager's job. John Ward, Micky Adams and an unnamed 'surprise contender' are the ones up for it. Crewe have dispensed with the services of assistant boss Neil Baker after 15 years, but he may be offered a scouting role with the club.
