Transfers aplenty at the Thorp Arches

Yorkshires Amateurs boss Danlufc13 has been busier than Jermaine Beckford’s agent this week as he performs a dizzying round of transfer negotiations. No fewer than 6 players have signed for the Amateurs since the turn of the year, the most notable acquisition so far, Lucas Ravelli from the St Omer production line.
Boss Danlufc13 has been working hard to bring down the average age of the squad with five players leaving in recent days, including 35 year olds Hasselstrom and McMahon who played a pivotal role in their promotion. Time and tide waits for no man though and it is these older players, on the verge of retirement who have had to make way for new blood.
It is a risky transfer policy but as long as the Amateurs can maintain a reasonable average age then they will hope to preserve their top flight status this term. The spending is not yet complete though and deals will hopefully all be concluded within the next few days.
