Butler: Chester extension
Paul Butler and Tony Dinning have signed 12-month contract extensions with Chester.
City boss Simon Davies suspended defender Butler and midfielder Dinning following a breach in club discipline in April.
But after a meeting between the parties earlier this week it was decided the duo will start the new season with the rest of the squad when they kick-off on 9th August away to Dagenham & Redbridge.
Davies told the club's official website: "There was a dispute, however after talks the two players are willing to give their all for the club which is pleasing.
"Everybody in the squad is now knuckling down and preparing for the forthcoming season, everybody has one common aim and that is to be successful for Chester City Football Club."
