Alfreton Town sign goalkeeper James Severn on loan from Scunthorpe United
James (23), came through the ranks at Derby County, but made just one appearance for the club and had loan spells with Tamworth and the now defunct Eastwood Town.
Scunthorpe signed Severn after his release from Derby County in June 2012. On his debut as a substitute for United in September 2012, he saved a penalty nine minutes after coming on against Portsmouth.
