We are delighted to announce the signing of experienced winger Jason Stokes.

The 26-year-old becomes the first new signing made by Michael Morton and Simon Collins.

Jason started his career at Barnsley for the vast majority of his youth before moving into the semi-professional game with Rossington Main at the age of just sixteen.

Following on from this Jason moved abroad to ply his trade in Belgium before returning to England and featuring for Boston United, Gainsborough Trinity, North Ferriby United, Matlock Town and Ilkeston.

After good spells in the National League North and Evo-Stik Premier Divisions, the midfielder then opted to seek another challenge abroad, this time in Australia.

“I am delighted to get this signing over the line” said boss Michael Morton.

“I’ve been trying to sign Jason for the last 10 years” Morton said in jest.

“He can play on both wings as well as a striker. He scores goals, gets assists and I think he will be a fans favourite with Taddy.”

Jason himself also expressed his excitement in securing the move.

“I’m very happy to join up with Mikey and Simon in a club that is going places and doing things the right way from the top right down to the bottom.”

“I can’t wait to get the season started and hopefully we can challenge for play-offs at least.”

“#UPTHEBREWERS”
