Trotman joins Colchester

He joined Preston in January last year in a £500,000 move from Oldham Athletic and finally made his debut for the Lilywhites at the end of last season when he featured in each of the last three league games.

But injury has ruled him out for a lot of the current season and as yet he hasn't featured at all in the first team. That prompted manager Alan Irvine to get him out on loan to get some first team football and today he's signed for Colchester for one month.

He's got a tough start with them. He goes straight into their squad for this Saturday's game against league leaders Leicester City.
