Rushden & Diamonds have signed Mansfield Town forward Chris Beardsley on a month's loan. Beardsley, 22, is in his second spell with the Stags. He was released in 2004 but returned a year later after spells with Doncaster and Kidderminster.
Stuart Beavon, leading scorer from Southern League South & West Division side Didcot Town, had also been set to join - but the move will not go ahead.
The striker, 22, scored twice in Didcot's 2005 FA Vase final success.
