Cheltenham Town

The Robins have completed the loan signing of Ryan Jennings from League One side Wigan Athletic on an initial one-month loan. The 20-year-old winger scored eight times in 13 games for Wigan under-21s last season.

Eastleigh

Southampton-born forward Tony Lee, 19, has signed his first professional forms with the Spitfires. Lee has impressed for AFC Totton and Dorchester Town before breaking into the first-team squad at Eastleigh.

He becomes the first young professional to sign terms with the club for almost 10 years and hopes to follow in the footsteps of Aaron Martin and Will Aimson, who both moved into the Football League.

FC Halifax Town

Ex-Oldham Athletic boss Darren Kelly's spell as manager came to an end this week after 47 days in charge.

Gateshead

Midfielder George Honeyman has extended his loan with Gateshead from Sunderland until January.

The 21-year-old struck a late winner in last month’s 3-2 victory at Boreham Wood and has performed well for Malcolm Crosby's side.

Guiseley AFC

The Lions have confirmed the signing of midfielder Oliver Norburn. Bolton-born Norburn, 23, lists Leicester City, Bristol Rovers and Plymouth Argyle among his former clubs.

He made 56 appearances for Rovers after joining from Leicester in July 2012 and then 14 for Argyle after moving to Devon in the summer of 2014.

Guiseley boss Mark Bower said: "We’ve been really impressed with Oli in training during the past few weeks and we feel he has proven quality to add to our squad."

Macclesfield Town

Striker Kristian Dennis, who is currently on a season-long loan from Stockport County, is rumoured to be a target for a number of Football League clubs in the January transfer window.

The 25-year-old striker has scored 14 goals this season, including a hat-trick in last weekend's 5-2 win at Woking.

Dennis began his career at Macclesfield making four appearances before going on to Woodley Sports, Ashton United and Mossley AFC, Curzon Ashton and then Stockport in 2013.

He is out of contract at the end of the season and Stockport would prefer to cash-in on him in January rather than risk losing the forward for nothing next summer.

Southport

Paul Carden has left the Sandgrounders by mutual consent. Ex-Chester City captain Carden was appointed as Port boss in January 2015 following the departure of Gary Brabin.

A statement from the club said: "The Southport board would like to thank Paul for all his professionalism, efforts and dedication to the job and wish him well in his future football career.

"Results this season just have not been achieved, despite Paul working very hard putting together a talented squad of players."
