Bristol City manager Brian Tinnion has ruled out signing former Town striker Alun Armstrong. The ex-Stockport and Boro man spent time on trial with the Robins in the summer before an achilles injury put him out of action.

Tinnion said: "I have spoken to his agent but Alun has had a lot of injuries over the last few years.

"It's not a situation we need here at the moment. We need someone who is fit and ready to go."

Last week Armstrong played a trial game for Rotherham, while Walsall have also shown an interest.
