Having updated the Diamonds A to Z regularly in the past, I expect not many bother looking at the old Official Website any more. Although movements / loans / transfers are also posted via Twitter (@OfficialRDFC), I thought that I would start a thread to update them on here as well. Moves over the past 10 days are:

George Artemi (Nov 2009 – 1 appearance)
(Southend United) joins Bishop's Stortford

Ryan Charles (Aug 2010 to Apr 2011 – 44 appearances, 11 goals)
(Cambridge Utd) joins Newport County on loan till the end of the season

Mark Cooper (Jan 1998 to Apr 2000 - 56 appearances, 12 goals)
(Unattached) joins K*ttering Town as caretaker manager

Joe Day (Sep 2008 to Apr 2011, 41 appearances)
(Peterborough Utd) loan at Alfreton Town extended till end of the season

Marcus Kelly (Mar 2004 to Apr 2009 – 192 appearances, 16 goals)
(Mansfield Town loan) returns to K*ttering Town after proposed transfer cancelled

Matt Pattison (Aug 2009 to May 2010 – 31 appearances, 2 goals)
(Walton & Hersham) joins Kingstonian

Conal Platt (Mar 2008 to Apr 2008 – 10 appearances)

I often look at the Twitter page to see where players have gone.

Out of interest, how do you find some of them out? It's always intrigued me. Some of the really low level stuff.

As for Mark Wright - supposedly available for selection on Saturday.

Left back Rene Steer suspended so he is more than likely to slot in there.

I find it totally amazing that a player as poor as Conal Platt can get another position with a Conference Premier club. He must have a good agent! :shock:

Rene Steer has certainly gone down in the world since he appeared for Arsenal at Nene Park

Same, I don't watch TOWIE, but I'm not sure how this passed me by, I had no idea he was even a footballer! :?
