Cambridge United have announced the signing of Curtis Haynes-Brown on loan from League One outfit Yeovil Town until January 2. The 23-year-old left-back, who can also operate in central defence, has only made one appearance for the Glovers this season, having spent a two-month loan spell at AFC Wimbledon earlier this season. Haynes-Brown didn’t have the best of debuts for the Dons, scoring an own-goal in the 5-1 defeat to Bradford before suffering an injury, although he went on to play six times for Neal Ardley’s side.

Yeovil Town swelled their ranks ahead of yesterday’s deadline for loan signings by bringing defender Dale Bennett in on loan from npower Championship side Watford. The 22-year-old has agreed a three-month loan deal at Huish Park and fills the void left by Daniel Johnson, who returned to Aston Villa after his loan spell ended this week. Bennett’s arrival means Gary Johnson is again left with six loanees – Bennett, Joe Edwards, Dan Burns, Korey Smith, Gozie Ugwu and Paddy Madden – so one will have to be left out of match-day squads to comply with Football League regulations.

Dale Bennett will add strength and pace to Yeovil Town’s back line as well as be a “destroyer” in midfield according to manager Gary Johnson. The Glovers swooped yesterday to sign the Watford player on loan until January, with the Huish Park outfit confirming he will be in the squad to face Carlisle United tomorrow. With both Jamie McAllister and Dan Burn a booking away from suspension and Byron Webster limping through Tuesday’s success at Crawley Town with a foot injury, Yeovil could have been faced with a defensive headache.

Yeovil Town must learn to “win ugly” if they wish to rub shoulders with npower League One’s top teams, according to defender Byron Webster. The Glovers return to home soil on Saturday when they face Carlisle United, having travelled to play-off contenders Swindon Town and Crawley Town. Visiting the County Ground on the back of five wins from seven divisional outings, Gary Johnson’s men were found wanting and stumbled to a 4-1 defeat. Centre half Webster said it was up to Yeovil to develop a battling streak and grind out results when necessary – similar to their last Huish Park success over Hartlepool United.

The 20-year-old midfielder still had a week remaining on his month-long loan but manager Gary Johnson opted to send him back to Villa Park.

Meanwhile, Glovers boss Johnson has confirmed former Ipswich player Jaime Peters is training with the squad.

Crawley manager Richie Barker was left wondering how his side had failed to beat Yeovil after their 1-0 defeat tonight. A last minute David Hunt own goal was a sucker-punch for a Crawley side which had dominated for long spells and saw the pick of the game’s chances fall to Nicky Adams and Gary Alexander. It leaves Crawley without a win in their last five, and means they slip to ninth in the League One table. Barker said: “I don’t know how we didn’t win. It’s probably as good a performance as we have had in a while. We created more chances, I thought the players were fantastic, we ran out of luck.”

Crawley Town were stunned by a last minute goal in a 1-0 defeat to Yeovil Town at the Broadfield Stadium tonight. David Hunt headed into his own net in the 90th minute after the Glovers withstood wave after wave of Crawley attack in the second half. The Reds just could not find the vital goal, as Nicky Adams sliced wide from ten yards and Gary Alexander hit the crossbar with the pick of the home side’s chances. Crawley made four changes from the side which drew with Walsall, three of which were enforced as Mark Connolly and the returning Kyle McFadzean replaced suspended duo Claude Davis and Joe Walsh.
