CHIPPENHAM Town chief Nathan Rudge has confirmed that striker Lewis Powell and defender Greg Tindle are set to leave the club this summer.

Powell, 22, who netted 10 goals before his season was wrecked by an unfortunate leg break in January, is expected to sign for league rivals Leamington while Tindle, 23, is leaving Hardenhuish Park in a bid to earn a deal at a Conference club.

Former Bristol Rovers youngster Powell first signed for the Bluebirds in January 2009 while Tindle, who played locally for FC Chippenham Youth before progressing through the ranks at Oxford United, joined the club from Melksham Town six months later.

Rudge also confirmed that he was interested in bringing in Swindon Supermarine's player of the season Rob Dean before the midfielder opted to stay with Chippenham's relegated local rivals.
