...signed for Hebburn Town last night after playing, and scoring, in a friendly for them.

Good luck to him - he joins a number of players who have left for Division One teams in the last few weeks, like Kieren Wrightson, Lawrence McKenna and Adam Wilkinson (Bedlington), and Steven Aiston (Consett).

Everyone at Whickham FC wishes scotty the best of luck at Hebburn, great lad and he'll be a miss on and off the pitch.

We wish all the others the same as we've no issue with any of the lads and we hope they all have a good season, if not they know where we are and we'd welcome them all back.
