FORMER Orient keeper Stuart Nelson could be set for a move to Lincoln City.

The 26-year-old stopper, who quit the O's by mutual consent despite still having a year left to run on his Brisbane Road contract, is reported to be attracting interest from the Imps who are looking for a replacement Alan Marriott.

The Lincolnshire Echo believe Nelson could be in the running replace Marriott was released last week, bringing an end to nine years' loyal service at Sincil Bank.

They also claim that the former Brentford gloveman, who failed to settle in the south, is said to be keen on a move back north close to Doncaster, where he started his career.
