Rugby Town manager Billy Jeffrey has moved to sign 19-year-old midfielder Andrew Rigby on a short-term basis from Rushden & Diamonds in time for tomorrow's visit of Maidenhead United.

With Willis Francis serving a two-game suspension, Billy's options were numbered but a last-minute deal was succesful in bringing in the versatile Rigby.

Andrew, a former Nottingham Forest trainee, was signed on a non-contract basis by former Rushden boss Paul Hart and has featured twice in the first team this season. He made his debut two months ago and was praised by Hart for his performance who said that Andrew "did extremely well" and was "an exemplary professional".

Rigby is expected to feature in tomorrow's squad to face Maidenhead as Valley look to make it three wins in a row.
