Gary McCann is delighted to announce that he secured the signing last night of an exciting prospect in 19 year old Jon-Jo Bates, who has joined us from Bedfont Green.

Jon-Jo has been tracked by a number of clubs following some impressive performances towards the end of last season and he has a very bright future ahead of him. Gary is thrilled that we have managed to attract Jon-Jo to the club, and said that he knew that Bedfont Green were very disappointed to have lost his services.

Jon-Jo isn't an entirely unfamiliar face at the club, as he was often in attendance at games when his Dad, Jon-Barrie, was with the club a few years ago.

A second trialist was also signed last night in the form of 24 year old midfielder/forward Mariusz Serwin, who joins us from Kentish Town where he was playing under former Hendon favourite Rakatahr Hudson, who is now managing Kentish Town.

We welcome both players to the club, and we hope that they have a long and successful time with us.
