Bradford will hold talks with manager Stuart McCall after they confirmed they would be cutting the budget next season. McCall had said he would quit if they failed to make the play-offs, but fans have backed him to stay.
Notts County chairman John Armstrong-Holmes has survived his vote of no-confidence. 57% of voters backed him and fellow director Eric Kelly. Ex-Bull Jonathan Gould has joined Australian A-League side Wellington Phoenix as assistant coach. He has been with New Zealand Championship side Hawkes Bay United for the past few years. He will be joined at his new club by Tranmere striker Chris Greenacre.
Bury have agreed a two year extension to their groundshare deal with FC United of Manchester.

The financially stricken side have offered reduced terms to a number of players, and released five more including Hereford-born midfielder Jamie Price.
Weymouth chairman Ian Ridley has said the club needs to find £40,000 in the next month to pay the outstanding wages for the players that deserted the club in February, or they could face an FA ban on signing new players.
