Carruthers - Adding to the City forward line
However the move does see journeyman striker Martin Carruthers move to Sincil Bank looking to recreate his magical goalscoring form.

West is hoping to sign in time for the Pilgrims clash with Fulham in tomorrow nights Coca Cola cup. He made just a handful of appearances for City this season before being ousted by Matt Bloomer at right back.

Carruthers hasn't managed to break past Andy Kirk or Jason Lee at York Street, and may add the pace and scoring touch that the current City forward line severely lacks at present. He scored 21 goals in the season Scunthorpe were beaten by City in the play off semi finals, adding a further 10 for Macclesfield last season.

The former Stoke striker will sign a contract until the end of the season.
