BRENTFORD boss Andy Scott hopes to loan out Leon Legge before Thursday's deadline.

The centre-back has made just three appearances for the Bees since his summer switch from Tonbridge Angels.

And with Legge being way down the pecking order at Griffin Park, Scott reckons it's better if he gets some game time elsewhere.

He said: "Leon's name's been circulated, so if someone comes in for him we'll look at getting him out.

"But I don't want to lose too many players with all our injuries, suspensions and illness."

Meanwhile, Scott confirmed Fraser Franks will spend a third month at Blue Square South side Basingstoke Town.
