Peterborough sign midfielder

Last updated : 31 December 2006 By Andy Van Hagen
Peterborough United have strengthened their squad ahead of the New Years Day meeting with Walsall by signing Hartlepool midfielder Gavin Strachan on a one-month loan deal.

Strachan arrives at London Road for a second spell after spending a short loan period at the club in 2003.

Strachan started his career as a trainee at Coventry City and has had spells at Dundee, Motherwell, Stockport and Southend United. He has made over 60 league starts for Hartlepool and this move will enable him to get much needed match action under his belt.

Strachan goes straight into the Posh squad for the meeting with league leaders Walsall at London Road.
