TWTD understands that Portadown left-back Ross Redman is currently training with the Blues at Playford Road. The Northern Ireland U19 international was one of the youngsters who spent time with the squad during their tour of Belfast in the summer.

Redman, 18, recently signed a contract keeping him with his hometown club until the end of the season having come through their youth ranks.

Meanwhile, Luton Town boss Mick Harford has revealed that he was at the Blues' behind-closed-doors reserve game against Spurs yesterday afternoon. The Hatters' boss, who also watched the Town second string on a number of occasions last season, is looking to augment his squad with loan players.
