Rovers Return For Alsop

Last updated : 24 October 2005 By Stray Shots Team

32 year old striker Julian Alsop has re-joined Forest Green Rovers in a loan deal from his current club Tamworth.

The former Swansea, Cheltenham and Oxford front man was on Rovers "want list" having played at the Lawn last season however the player opted to join the Lambs.

Alsop - a previous target for Shots boss Terry Brown only managed one goal in nine appearences for the midlands club before he picked up a foot injury.

The Gloucestershire side are currently in 19th place in the league - one behind the Shots, and will be hoping that the striker can find some form to help push away from the foot of the table.
