Adam Lakeland says Town would love to extend defender Ash Palmer's loan deal until the end of the season.

The centre-back joined Halifax on a month's loan from York City earlier this month and has helped the club to three wins in his four appearances, including two clean sheets.

"We can't extend it until it expires anyway, which is after the Tamworth game (on April 6)," Lakeland said.

"Ultimately that'll be controlled by York, we're just going to have to wait and see.

"From our perspective, we'd love to have him here for the remainder of our season but we're just going to have to wait and see what happens in the next ten, 12 days."

Ahead of the National League transfer deadline on Thursday, Lakeland doesn't expect there to be any further additions to his squad.

"No, I don't think so, I'm happy with what we've got," he said.

"We've got plenty of bodies, plenty of cover pretty much everywhere so no, I'm happy with what we've got."
