Central defender Lucketti has spoken to Palace over the telephone but he now looks ready to take his place in the Bury side that travels to the Isle of Man. An end to the saga can be expected next week when Bury chairman Terry Robinson returns from holiday. Bracey. after being recommended by former teammate Ronnie Mauge, is one of three goalkeepers being looked at by Argyle He could be joining them for trials next week. Lancaster, who has been offered a new contract, will not be leaving on a free transfer and that might deter Witton although several other top non-league sides are in the queue for the powerful striker.
