Martin Swales has signed Jack Pounder from neighbours Ryhope CW.
Jack has been on Martin's wanted list for some considerable time and now the striker, who hails from Peterlee, says he feels ready for the challenge of the first division.
He leaves Ryhope CW with the good wishes of both the manager, Gary Pearson, and the chairman, Darren Norton. "He deserves his chance in the first division" said Norton. "If it doesn't work out we will welcome him back with open arms, he is so well thought of at the Colliery Welfare."
