City have withdrawn their approach for Chesterfield forward David Reeves after the 35-year-old requested higher wages than he was being paid at Saltergate.

Stuart Green scored in his first game back at Carlisle, getting the winner in the 1-0 win against Rochdale. However, the midfielder will be out of the side for their next league game (against City on Saturday) under the rules of the loan deal.

Greg Strong has prematurely returned from his loan spell at Cheltenham after his family failed to settle there. The defender played four games for the Robins.

Former City star Theodore Whitmore was acquited of manslaughter of former Jamaican team-mate Steve Malcolm after a seven-man jury found him innocent of charges.

A fans' forum will be held at the KC Stadium on Thursday with Adam Pearson and Peter Taylor. All 450 tickets have been sold, but you can hear it live on BBC Radio Humberside.

The upcoming away games at Carlisle and Rushden & Diamonds are all-ticket for City fans. Tickets are on sale now.
