News From Other Leagues

Erstwhile U21 goal-getter here, Jack Vale, signed for Northampton, managed by Kevin Nolan. Interesting to see if he can stay fit and score some goals. Though, doesn't look likely to me as he struggled for goals in every loan spell he went on - but he may surprise. I hope he does.

Tyler Magloire was there before but released. He had a brutal knee injury that kept him out for over a year, ruptured ACL, MCL and torn meniscus. I read he is being looked at by Grimsby who have Zak Gilsenan.

I heard two of our ex managers names on soccer Saturday the other day, Gary Bowyer is at Burton and bottom of league one and Mark Hughes is still at Carlisle in the national league, bizarre the route he took gradually going further down the pyramid

All downhill for all of that load of players and manager that left Rovers at that time to move to "bigger clubs".

At least David Bentley came out and admitted it was a massive mistake and he should have stayed.

Did Ben Marshall ever play for Darwen in the end?

Cant find anything about his play time there, but he has now left Darwin and is scoring a few for Eccleshall

I was told his debut was delayed as he had a holiday booked in Ibiza and he just never showed up again.

The last they saw of him was when he was pictured signing on (along with two pints of lager on the table with the signing on forms).

If ever two paragraphs that summed up his career.

Bowyer did a cracking job when he came into Burton last season. Kept them up from a seemingly impossible position.

However red hot favourites to go down again and they are struggling this season.
