Volunteers Needed for ground clean up
Over the next few weeks we are looking to get the stadium and its surroundings ready for the forthcoming season.
There will be work parties on the ground so we’re looking for volunteers to come down and give us a hand around the ground, even if you can only spare a few hours any help will be much appreciated.
The first work party will be this weekend.
Striker Switches Tameside Team
Hyde United are pleased to announce the signing of forward Jack Redshaw, the 31-year-old moves to the Project Solar Stadium after two seasons with fellow divisional rivals, Ashton United.
Redshaw has scored 83 career goals spanning across 274 games for the likes of Morecambe, Salford City and Halifax. Jack follows in the footsteps of his father Ray who had a spell with the Tigers back in the
1982-83 season when he scored 10 goals in 30 appearances.
Manager Nick Spooner said “We’re really pleased to have Jack on board, he’s an excellent talent with great qualities and will add a further dimension to our squad.”
Redshaw was equally as pleased to have joined the Tigers saying “I’m happy to have joined and can’t wait to get started and prepare for the new season.”
Two More Players Re-Sign For Coming Season
Nick Spooner continues his preparations towards the 2022/23 season with the signing of Javid Swaby-Neavin on a permanent deal following a loan spell last season and the re-signing of Callum Spooner on one-year deals.
Javid made six appearances on loan from FC Halifax Town, and impressed, before he was recalled by the National League Play-Off contenders.
Following his release from the club Nick Spooner didn’t hesitate to snap him up permanently.
Callum Spooner also joined us towards the end of the season, following a move from Bamber Bridge, and also impressed in his eight appearances for the club.
Nick said ”Both players came in and did a great job for us at the end of the season, they were both players I wanted to re-sign and pleased to get them over the line. It’s a real coup to get Javid on board permanently, we can see what he did in this league last season, he can get forward he’s got a long throw and the fact Halifax took him back and then played him in the National League shows he has quality so it’s a really good signing for us. Callum came in and we asked him to do a job in midfield and he enjoyed his time so he’s happy to come back.”
Callum said ‘‘I’m delighted to get it down, I was really struck by how professional the club is and I’m looking forward to next season especially with the core members of the squad that we already have here and with a few additions I feel we can really push on.”
