News Round-Up


Southport have released midfielder Jamie Milligan by mutual consent. The 34 year old hasn't played in the three games since he was subbed off just after half time in their draw with Hyde, having been a virtual ever-present beforehand. Ex-Bull Alan Connell is expected to join Northampton rather than Grimsby, according to Bradford boss Phil Parkinson.

Former Bulls loanee Chris Palmer is the latest ex-Bull through the doors at Tamworth. Now 30, former Derby trainee Palmer had been playing for Oxford City after leaving Burton in the summer. Grimsby have signed Stevenage forward Oumare Tounkara on loan for the remainder of the season. The 23 year old Frenchman debuted as a sub last night after 17 goalless games for the League One side so far.

Stockport's shirt sponsors have applied to the FA to set up a new semi-professional club in the town. The owners of the nearby Stockport Sports Village, already home to semi-pro side Stockport Sports, would house the new side if accepted into the NWCL with a decision due in March. Ex-Bull Waide Fairhurst has joined former club Macclesfield on loan for a month from Lincoln. The 24 year old made the reverse move in the summer but has started only five games since.
