Saints add defensive options; Hatters’ Smith joins on loan

St Albans City have bolstered their defensive options with two new signings.

Hornchurch defender Omar Beckles, who played in a Herts Senior Cup win over Cheshunt, has signed permanently while Ian Gayle has joined on a month-long loan from Dagenham and Redbridge.

Luton Town midfielder Charlie Smith has also joined on loan.

All three are available for selection this Saturday away at Basingstoke.
