CHERRIES have confirmed striker Joe Quigley has agreed a six-month loan deal with Newport County.

The 20-year old striker arrives at the League Two outfit and could feature when Newport make the trip to Coventry City tomorrow.

Quigley, whose previous loan clubs include Torquay, Wrexham, Woking and Poole Town, defied expectations by returning to action last term, only six months after suffering a serious knee injury while on loan at Gillingham.

Newport are currently 16th in League Two, with two draws coming from their opening two league fixtures.
