GREAT Harwood Town have snapped up John Paul Fagan from Clitheroe on a month's loan.

The midfielder has been brought in as manager Dave Bradford tries to halt a run of three consecutive defeats, the latest being 2-0 at Glossop North End on Tuesday.

Bradford said: "The lads were sick because it was the best I've seen us play this season but we're not getting any luck. It cant go on but it makes me hopeful for Saturday."

New Mills, a divison below Great Harwood in the Moore & Co Solicitors North West Counties League are the visitors in the FA Vase first qulaifying round.

Paul Mashiter is out injured and Lewis Hamlin is away but Ryan Parr returns from suspension and James Dean from holiday.
