Welsh Player News (and rumours) Leagues One and Two

League One
Midfielder David Pipe, who was released by Bristol Rovers this season, has been jailed for more than three years for assault. Maybe I shouldn't feel any sympathy for him at all but he's got a very difficult time ahead of him and the fact I think the judge made the right decision won't change that. He did something awful and hurt someone, not just physically. But that doesn't mean he's an awful person or that he won't now become a better person.


Jason Price has signed for Carlisle United on a free transfer after being released by Millwall. Jason spent part of last season on loan at Carlisle and clearly they liked what they saw. Quite right too. He has an impressive goalscoring record for Carlisle and lovely hair. He says he’s taking his coachng badges and wants to help young players.

Yeovil Town assistant manager Nathan Jones will continue to play next season despite being 37 now.


League Two
Bradford City’s Michael Flynn is excited by new signing Tommy Docherty.

Josh Low has signed an extention to his Cheltenham Town contract. I thought he had but either I’ve got it wrong or Sky Sports has and it’s probably them.

Hereford United have sold Welsh defender Darren Jones to Aldershot Town. Darren was given an improved offer by Hereford but he thought he’d go to a club with a manager.

Port Vale are going on a pre-season tour of Ireland and Gareth Owen says it won’t be easy.

Tom Bradshaw is one of just two fit strikers at Shrewsbury Town. New manager Graham Turner says he wants to sign a striker but obviously he means as backup. Of course he must mean that ;)
