Midfield duo drop down

Coalville Town midfielders Lewis Dodd and Cameron Powell have both left the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League for lower league clubs.

First Division South Coalville announced on Wednesday that the pair were joining Step 5 clubs for next season following talks with manager Adam Stevens. The Ravens manager expects to bring in a number of new players over the coming days as he seeks to revamp his squad for another title challenge.

Dodd, 25, made 191 appearances and scored 51 times during three spells at Coalville. Last season he scored ten times playing in the wing-back role. Dodd has moved on to Midland Football Alliance newcomers Quorn while Powell is heading to United Counties outfit Oadby Town.

The promising teenager joined Coalville towards the end of the 2011-12 campaign from Aylestone Park.
