As we have now reached the halfway point of the league season, Eric has provided an update on the fundraising scheme for the players budget this season. To date Eric through the sponsored results program has raised £1,300 for the players fund with projected totals for the season hoping to reach £2,500.
At the club we want to thank Eric and all of his sponsors individually for their continued efforts to fundraise and help support the club. Up the Boro!
Joe Dunne signs on loan from Rochdale
We are proud to announce the signing of 20 year old defender, Joe Dunne from Rochdale. This will initially be a one month loan arrangement.
Joe is 6.0’ and is comfortable at either left back or left-sided centre half. His career started at Wolves before joining Rochdale and becoming a first team squad player. He has played for the first team as a starter on two occasions and now needs regular game time. A huge additional bonus is that Joe was born and still lives in Stafford.
Welcome Joe.
