We are delighted to welcome Darren Lough to North Shields.
The experienced defender Darren joins from Ashington AFC.
After helping Ashington gain promotion in his first season back at Woodhorn Lane, Loughy made 32 appearances in Ashington’s NPL East campaign last season, scoring twice.
Darren started his career at Newcastle United before moving to Ashington. He left the Colliers in 2012, playing professionally in Iceland for KA Akureyri and IA Akranes, before returning to England, joining South Shields and later Hebburn Town, winning the FA Vase at Wembley with both.
We are delighted with the latest addition to steady the back line and brings quality experience.
Darren goes straight into contention for this evenings game.
A huge thank you to Gav and the team at Ashington for their support with the signing.
