Chester sign duo

Preston striker Joe O'Neill has joined League Two side Chester on a month's loan.

Chester have bolstered their squad with the double signing of Colchester United defender George Elokobi and Preston striker Joe O'Neill.

Both players have signed one-month loan deals at Chester and could make their debuts against Swansea this weekend.

O'Neill has seen his first team chances limited at Preston this season.

North End boss Billy Davies is willing to let him go out on loan so that he can gain valuable first team experience.

O'Neill's contract at Preston expires at the end of the season and if he impresses at Chester he could win a permanent deal at The Deva.
