Former Brighton striker goes out on loan, ex-Crawley Town midfielder finds new club
Crawley Town striker Louis Flower has joined National League side Woking on loan until the end of the season.
Flower has made 16 appearances for the club this season, scoring on three occasions. In the search for regular game time, Louis has now joined the Cardinals, who currently sit 13th in the fifth tier of English football.
The club said: “We’d like to wish Louis the best of luck for his loan spell and look forward to watching his progress closely.”
Flower's loan includes a recall option.
And Jack Roles, who left the Broadfield Stadium last week, has joined South Shields on an initial 18-month contract.
Roles was delighted to join The Mariners. “It feels brilliant. It’s a great club with real ambition, and when I saw where they were in the league, it was an opportunity I didn’t want to turn down,” he told the National League North club’s website.
“I worked with Mags last year, and we have a great relationship. I’ve spoken to ex-teammates about the gaffer and they’ve all had nothing but positive things to say about him and his style of coaching. The gaffer was really clear about how he wants to play and where he sees me fitting into the team. What he wants to do with the club was a big thing for me, and it matches exactly what I’m looking for at this stage of my career.”
South Shields are currently top of the National League North table.
