Neil Tooth delighted to see trio sign with Hednesford Town
‘Delighted’ Hednesford Town boss Neil Tooth has added three more faces to next season’s squad.
The Pitmen chief has snapped up winger Matt Dodd and defender Alex Melbourne, while full-back Lewis Wright has agreed to stay on at Keys Park.
Dodd moves from fellow Evo-Stik Premier side Stourbridge, where he had played for the last two seasons, with Melbourne arriving from El Staffico rivals Stafford Rangers.
Wright joined Hednesford in June last year and, apart from a knee injury which kept him out for a section of the campaign, was a regular in the side.
Tooth said: “I’m over the moon to be able to bring in a player of Matt’s quality.
“His pace and quality in the final third gives the squad a new dimension.
“Alex missed five months of last season due to a tear in his Achilles but he is now pain free and raring to go.
“Lewis had a number of options to leave, interest from teams in the leagues above, but I’m very happy to say that he has agreed a deal to remain at the club.”
Meanwhile, Stafford have re-signed winger Joe Thomas, who had spells at Chasetown and Nuneaton Town last term.
Stourbridge recruited Brandon Ball, who was recently released by Wolves, and agreed fresh terms with several of last season’s squad including Jordan Archer and Dan Preston.
