The tough tackler was due to go out onloan to conference team Shrewsbury Town this week but that was put off due to injuries to Rix, and now Brammer. Caretaker boss Neil Baker:
"Belly was going to go out on loan to Shrewsbury but now Ben (Rix) and David (Brammer) are injured that will have to be put on hold for now."
Manager of Shrewsbury Jimmy Quinn has seen Belly many times since he lives in Crewe and see's a few matches. He was disappointed by the none mover:
"Bell's a good player and he fits the bill because he's got a bit of quality about him but they've got one or two knocks so it's no-go there,"
"It is frustrating but I am still pretty hopeful of bringing in new faces sooner rather than later.
"It's just a case of making more phone calls and there's not many people I don't know in football."
