ONE OUT AND ONE IN AT ST JAMES AS DEADLINE LOOMS

Following Scott Golbourne's departure to Championship side Barnsley, Exeter City have snapped up as a direct replacement in the form of Bradford City's Luke O'Brien.

The Grecians have taken over the contract of O'Brien, who has made over 120 appearances for the Bantams since turning pro in 2007.

He will take over the left block vacated by Golbourne who has agreed a two-and-a-half year deal with the Tykes, who are managed by former Plymouth Argyle defender Keith Hill.

City have so far been the busiest movers in the transfer market as the transfer deadline approaches and it remains to be seen if Yeovil Town, Torquay United and Plymouth Argyle will be involved in any last minute transfer activity.
