A Couple of New Linnets

Pitching In Southern League Division One South club Lymington Town have added two players to their squad.

Returning to the Linnets is centre-back James Gorman.

The 19-year was a summer 2021 recruit Vanarama National League side Aldershot Town after being released by Joey Barton at Bristol Rovers.

He had come through the system at the Memorial Ground to become a regular in the under-18 side.

He mainly turned out for the under-23s after moving to the Rec but spent time on loan with the Linnets last season, making 12 appearances.

Also joining the club is experienced local goalkeeper Matt Fredericks.

The 28-year-old has been around the Wessex League circuit for several years after starting out in the youth system with Lymington’s league rivals AFC Totton.

He has had spells with the likes of Romsey Town, Hythe & Dibden, Totton & Eling, Bemerton Heath Harlequins and, more recently, Downton.
