Sills Goes Back to Former Club for Goalkeeper

Tim Sills, the recently appointed manager of Pitching In Southern League Division One South club Wimborne Town, has made his first new signing.

Sills has returned to his former club, league rivals Hamworthy United, to sign goalkeeper Shane Murphy.

Murphy re-joined the Hammers in the summer of 2020 from Southern Premier Division South side Dorchester Town.

He had signed for the Magpies from AFC Totton in May 2019 having been with the Stags after moving from Dorchester in the summer of 2017 having played every game of the 2016/17 campaign for the latter.

A former AFC Bournemouth keeper, he has also been with Wimborne Town and Hamworthy and became a firm favourite with the AFC Totton fans and was voted player of the season for 2018/19.

Sills told his club’s website: "I'm absolutely delighted to welcome Shane Murphy as our first new signing. Having worked with him for the last two years I know the qualities he brings both as a goalkeeper and a person. I couldn't be happier that he's agreed to join us”.
