Torquay have brought in former Oxford chairman Kelvin Thomas to review the business. Thomas was in charge when the U's regained their Football League status, and will advise Chairman Thea Bristow on changes to make the club more sustainable. Manager Chris Hargreaves has had to axe some of his fringe players in recent weeks and has no funds to strengthen his mid-table Conference side.
Gillingham have told a newspaper that does not cover the club that they are banned from the ground. The Kent & Sussex Courier says it hasn't covered a match at Priestfield for over ten years, but the club has told it that a ban issued to the long defunct Medway News three years ago extends to the paper, part of the same group, which wanted to cover a Tonbridge Angels Kent Cup match at the ground.
Port Vale chairman Norman Smurthwaite says it would be cheaper to ban away fans than allow them into the stadium for the Valiants coming home match with local rivals Crewe. The Railwaymen have sold 600 tickets for the game, with Smurthwaite saying the income is cancelled out by the Policing costs for the game. Westfields say that former Jon Taylor charge Sam Bobes-Gilroy has left the club and returned to Spain just two days after signing for them.
Another of Jon Taylor's 46 has signed for a new club. Striker Bradley Fortnam-Tomlinson has joined Northern Premier side Ilkeston. He had only joined Grays a month before. Grays, meanwhile, have had planning permission for a new stadium in Aveley refused by the Government. The application had been in the works for nearly seven years.
