Nowland And Rocastle Depart

The revolving door keeps on going, trialists Craig Rocastle and Adam Nowland have left after just 45 minutes of football.

Both played the second half of Sunday’s 1-1 draw at Nantwich Town but neither midfielder could do enough to earn himself a deal at Gresty Road.

Nowland was probably the most promising of the two having once commanded a fee of £250k for a move to Nott’m Forest but a long spell with serious injuries looks to have put the 27 year-old’s career on the rocks. Rocastle meanwhile has interested Gudjon for a few weeks but anyone who’s witnessed his performances for Port Vale never expected a deal to be sealed.

Meanwhile Gudjon is keeping the trialist figures up by taking on Faroe Island international goalkeeper Tordur Thomsen. Thomsen’s trial comes as the club sealed a loan deal with Spurs keeper David Button this week.
