Slough Town managed Steve Bateman has swooped to secure the signing of 30 year old midfielder Oliver Burgess from Chertsey Town.
Burgess leaves Chertsey in the wake of former Curfews owner and first team manager Spencer Day leaving the club to join Farnborough this week.
He is a versatile player, capable of playing in the middle or on the right side of the pitch, and started his career at Queens Park Rangers, scoring one goal from ten appearances.
He made a further nine league appearances for Northampton Town before his career was cut short by a serious knee injury.
A move into non-league football saw Burgess reignite his career and he has been a regular scorer from the middle of the park in recent seasons, with spells at Kettering Town, Nuneaton Borough, Corby Town, Brackley Town, and Hemel Hempstead, where he played under Steve Bateman and many of the current Rebels squad. He was part of the successful Corby team which won promotion to the Conference North.
He has scored three goals for Chertsey this season, and is available for selection in tomorrow's (Saturday) match at Biggleswade Town.
Charlie Mpi has decided to leave Slough Town in search of regular football, and has joined up with landlords and promotion rivals Beaconsfield SYCOB. Charlie scored one goal in his 22 appearances, the vast majority of which were from the bench. The club would like to wish him every success in his future career.
