22 year old Connor has been plying his trade with Mill Hill in the East Lancs Premier League. A ball playing centre half, Newton has played the majority of Town’s pre season games impressing along the way.

Manager Lee Ashcroft had the following to say on the signing: “This lad can defend, and play football. It’s been a while since we had a centre half in Connors mould, a real ball winner, strong, physical and he’s got a bit of the devil in him which I always like to see. He’ll take no prisoners and has a great will to win. Another former Mill Hill player, along with Ethan, a credit to themselves on and off the pitch. I’m looking forward to working with them both to improve them as players at this level.”

Connor is available to sponsor for the upcoming season. Please contact Joanne.Cummings1@btinternet.com with any enquiries.
