The club has agreed a deal with the PFA to pay players' appearance money for this season.

Former Town midfielder Wayne Burnett has joined Conference side Woking on a non-contract basis and played 90 minutes in their 2-1 defeat to Hereford last night. Viewers of the game on Sky say the signing has handed a massive boost to the Surrey pie industry.

Tresor Luntala, who joined Town as a trialist on the summer tour of Scandinavia, has exercised his contractual option to spend another year in Birmingham City's reserves.
