Lambs Make Sixth New Signing

Experienced midfielder Ben Milnes has put pen-to-paper for Pitching In Southern League Premier Division Central club Tamworth after helping Buxton to win the Northern Premier League Premier Division title last season.

The 30-year-old had joined the Bucks in the summer of 2021 from Vanarama National League North side Kettering Town.

He had signed for the Poppies from neighbours Corby Town in June 2017.

A highly-rated midfielder, whose career began at Leicester City before a move to Boston United, while at Corby he was the player of the year, and he also helped the Poppies to win the Southern Premier Central title in 2018/19.

Manager Andy Peaks told his club’s website: “I know quite a lot about Ben.

“He played against me when he was at Corby and Kettering.

“He has good experience and is a good character and he will bring a lot of quality on the ball.

“He has some characteristics that I think we have lost with Ryan Beswick going.

“He will hold things together and will link up well with Gift.

“He obviously won the league with Buxton last season and his record speaks for itself - he is still young enough and hungry enough and I am delighted to get him in".
