Striker Matthew Tipton has decided to join Mansfield Town. The player appeared to have agreed to a deal with Bury on Friday, but turned it down after being offered 'silly money' by the Stags.

Cheltenham chairman Paul Baker told the Gloucestershire Echo that the Robins had been able to match the Mansfield offer, but the fact that he wouldn't need to relocate to join Mansfield swung the decision in their favour.
