Leon Clarke gone

Leon Clarke has joined Crawley Town for the rest of the season and on loan and there is no recall clause: http://www.crawleyobserver.co.uk/sport/football/crawley-town-sign-leon-clarke-from-charlton-until-the-end-of-the-season-1-3637214

He was about to get on the coach for Scunthorpe when the news, which has been described as 'sensational' in Crawley, came through.

He has perhaps not added that much at Charlton.   There are no known plans for bringing anyone else in as cover.

Benno for Clarke swap

Swindon Town have apparently agreed a swap deal, Paul Benson to join the Rocking Robins for Leon Clarke, he of the bust up with di Canio.  Thanks to Pedro for alerting me to this story:

Originally a product of the Wolves youth academy Clarke has played at a number of clubs including Sheffield Wednesday and QPR:
