Clark Keltie.

Clark Keltie has joined conference side Chester City on loan for a month.

The midfielder has not featured in a Rochdale squad all season and has not been allowed to train with the first team following an alledged bust-up with the Dale management team at the back end of last season.

He has made 36 appearances since signing for Dale from Darlington in the summer last year, scoring one goal, a consolation penalty in a 4-1 defeat at Exeter.

Keltie, 26, is expected to go straight into Chester's side to face Wrexham on Sunday.
