New Ossett Albion signing Adam Porritt spent his entire youth years at Huddersfield Town
Highly-rated youngster Adam Porritt has dropped down a Division and joined ambitious Ossett Albion.
Midfielder Porritt arrives from Farsley Celtic, just weeks after the arrival of Gibraltar International Adam Priestley. Porritt, who has also played for Liversedge and Goole AFC, spent his entire youth years at Huddersfield Town.
New Albion manager Andy Welsh said: “Adam, although young, has vast experience in the game and joins us at a time where we are breaking in a new team and playing system.
“I am delighted he has come on board and having this type of player in the ranks continues to show that we are rebuilding the club in the most positive way possible.”
Weather-permitting Albion host Atherton Collieries tomorrow before the mouth-watering derby clash with arch rivals Ossett Town on New Year’s Day.
Welsh added: “We are unbeaten in three games now and aim to finish the year on a high by by gaining maximum points from our last two games. Atherton come here on Saturday and then we make the trip across town on New Year’s Day to Ossett Town where will be ready for an entertaining game.”
