Maidstone striker Frannie Collin is joining Herne Bay on a month's loan.

He will link up with the Ryman League Division 1 South club after their FA Cup tie at Rochester this weekend.

Stones boss Jay Saunders said: "A lot of Ryman Premier clubs came in but unfortunately the majority were further afield and would have been a problem with his work.

"You could look at it and think 'no, we don't want him going to a Ryman South club' but we just want him playing and Herne Bay are doing well this year so he should get plenty of chances to score some goals.

"We gave him a choice of three clubs in Ryman South and one in Ryman Prem and told him to take his pick."

United will still have Collin available for their National League South home game against Havant on Saturday.
