Maidstone United manager Jay Saunders hopeful of extending Alex Brown's stay at the club after release from Gillingham

Jay Saunders is hoping Maidstone
can tie up a deal to sign Alex Brown until the end of the
season.

Brown, pictured, impressed during a month’s loan at the
Gallagher Stadium but was surprisingly released by Gillingham at
the end of last week.
Saunders, whose side host
Crawley Down on Saturday, said: "Your head’s all over the place
when you’re released and you’re not sure what to do for the best
but hopefully we’ll be able to sort something out.
"A few teams have shown an
interest in him but I know he’s enjoyed himself here. He was
playing in League 2 last year so I understand he wants to play at
the highest level he can.
"He’s not had a lot of football
recently but he’d be playing every week here in front of big
crowds."
In-form Crawley have won
their last three games and are up to fourth.
Saunders said: "They’re on a
good run but we’re not too bad ourselves. What is it, one defeat in
19 games?
"They’re good going forward but we’re at home and it’s up
to us to put on a performance."
