We are delighted to announce two new signings to the club for the upcoming season.
Luke Knight joins us from Barton Rovers, where he has just won Manager's and Supporters' Player of the Year, despite only joining them in November.
'Knighty' first came to our attention when he was part of the Biggleswade side that got promoted through the play offs in 2012/2013, and we have also seen him a number of times last season, and have been impressed every time. He is a 25 year old central midfielder who popped up with a number of important goals last season for Barton, including a brilliant equaliser against us. We feel he will fit in nicely with all the lads, and is another big character to add to the squad.
We would also like to welcome Reece Yorke to the club, a central defender who joins us from Beaconsfield, having started last season at Burnham in the Southern Premier. This was when we were alerted to him, having put in an excellent performance against us pre season, and then having seen him on several other occasions. Reece is a former England Schoolboys under 18's player, who signed a one year professional contract with Barnet at age 17. At only 22 and at 6 foot 1, he is very hungry to push on, and we feel that he can have a real impact at Slough.
We have been impressed with both players' desire to join us at Slough, and their hunger to succeed.
