LARKIN ADDS TWO

Tunbridge Wells have announced the signing of two more additions for Season 2014/15. As Martin Larkin’s squad takes shape, George Benner (pictured) and Matt Parsons have put pen to paper.

George Benner joins from Herne Bay. Prior to joining Bay, however, he was with Erith & Belvedere and was a key figure is their Kent League and Cup double winning season two years ago.

“George is a local lad who has been playing Ryman League football for the past couple of years,” Larkin told www.tunbridgewellsfc.com. “An athletic, strong centre half we look forward to working with him.”

Those who were at the opening pre-season friendly against Rusthall will have seen forward Matt Parsons (no relation to Ian) open the scoring for the opposition. Larkin and his staff liked what they saw and acted quickly to snap him up.

“Matt really impressed against us when playing for Rusthall last week, so we have offered him the chance to step up in standard and he has taken it with both hands,” Larkin remarked.
