Telford lost 1-0 and McLintock, 21, was an unused substitute.

The club confirmed his departure with a very brief statement, which read: "AFC Telford United can confirm we have terminated the contract of Sam McLintock with immediate effect."

Central midfielder McLintock, who joined Telford after leaving Halifax, played seven times for Paul Carden's Bucks, including five starts.

Telford are languishing second-bottom in the National League North table. They go to Peterborough Sports on Saturday.
