Veteran 39-year-old goalkeeper Tony McMillan has joined the Bucks from North West Counties League Premier Division side Longridge Town.

 

McMillan (pictured) had joined Longridge in the summer following a second spell with Vanarama National League North outfit Southport, where he returned in October 2020 from Nantwich Town.

 

He had only been with the Dabbers for a month after joining from Northern Premier League Premier Division rivals Warrington Town, where he had been since November 2016.

 

He began in the youth set up at Manchester City. Shortly after, he would move to his home-town club Wigan Athletic and this was followed by another short stint at Preston North End.

 

At the end of 2000/01, he arrived at Runcorn FC Halton, where he had some stability at a club side for the first time.

 

After four years, moves to Lancaster City and Burscough, were also supplemented with loan moves to Ashton United, Colwyn Bay and another temporary move at Lancaster.

 

A successful move would follow at Southport, where he accumulated 200 appearances during his five-year spell, which began in 2008.

 

Altrincham swooped for his services, but he soon departed for Barrow and later Stalybridge Celtic before signing for Warrington.

 

Also joining Bootle is 19-year-old Charlie Holland.

 

The young forward crosses the border from JD Cymru Premier side Connah`s Quay Nomads where he had come through youth ranks.
