With Carlisle away for five days, in the Bristol City and Leyton Orient away week, his trial spell has been a little bit stop start but the United coaching staff have now seen enough to make their decision. The Wirral-born striker not worth a place on a book that already contains five forwards in Joe Anyinsah, Andy Cook, Scott Dobie, Gary Madine and recent signing Richard Offiong.
Before his spell in Cumbria the ex-Liverpool player had spent various loan spells in the lower divisions, at Accrington Stanley, Bournemouth, Chester and Notts County. Lindfield not really pulling up any sticks in those four spells away from Anfield with a record of only four goals scored in 27 starts plus nine substitute appearances.
His release from Brunton Park has caught the eye of former club Accrington Stanley however. Sadly for the cash-strapped Reds though their current financial state means that due to an FA ruling on their finances they are only allowed 20 senior players at the club, that despite Stanley having a few injuries in their squad at the moment, Accrington boss John Coleman commenting to the Lancashire Telegraph on the fact that both Lindfield and Stanley want to link up again :
"We can't sign anyone at the moment, we can't register anyone, that's the problem. Even if we get players for free we can't register them."
