Gainsborough Trinity have signed midfielder Darren Dunning from Blue Square North rivals Harrogate Town.

Former Blackburn trainee Dunning, 30, made his name at York City before spending two seasons with Harrogate, where he was team captain.

Trinity manager Steve Charles told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: "He's a good leader and has plenty of experience.

"He's always busy, good on the ball and composed under pressure and I think he'll be an exciting signing for us."

Dunning is the third Harrogate player to join Gainsborough since March, following the signings of defenders Nathan Peat and Ryan Toulson.

Charles also confirmed that other new arrivals are in the pipeline.

"We've agreed deals with a couple of players who have played at a higher level.

"With the chairman away at the moment we've not managed to sign them but we will shortly."
