Evo Stik Division One North
Striker Aiden Savory has changed his mind about signing for Scarborough Athletic and has instead decided to join up with Tadcaster Albion.
Savory’s change of heart under-lines the perils of announcing signings of non-contracted players before July 1st.
Savory, who can also act a centre-back, recently left Farsley Celtic after four years at Throstle Nest. Tadcaster also announced the captures of Chris Howarth and Joel Dixon on top of Savory.
“We have known about Aiden for years but only as a striker” said Mike Morton.
“Last season we saw him play centre-back for Farsley and we knew that he would fit into our playing model. He is strong, athletic and very comfortable in possession of the ball.
“His experience playing as a front man and as a centre half gives us great options to change our style of play.”
Should of gone to boro, yet another player who has made the wrong choice.
He’s a good striker at that level, is Sav.
Bit surprised at him swapping & changing like this. Having been at Throstle nest for 4 yrs or so, I’d have thought he would go with the gang heading to that new plastic ground by Olivers Mount. Mind, there’s a few ex-celts at Tad again now.
Maybe he’s been to the new place, and didn’t fancy the plastic pitch. Seriously.
Having seen hydes ground last season compared to most in the league, that ‘plastic ground’ looks amazing. Plus most teams train on 3g anyway. Add the fact that the plastic ground will contain the most fans in the division it is surprising. Taddy have money tho – makes sense when on his door step,
Mercenaries that’s all they, 1 season at tad then off they go.
