Hindle and Mulholland join having both spent last season at Colwyn Bay in the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League North.

 

Equally adept at playing up front or on the wing, the attacking duo were in fine form last season for Bay. Astley was top scorer for the north Wales coast outfit with 18 goals, while Hindle came second in the goalscoring charts with 13 goals whilst also winning goal of the season for a stunning strike against Scarborough Athletic.

 

Hindle, 24, joined Colwyn Bay at the start of last season from Radcliffe Borough where he was club captain.

 

He scored 13 times and produced 21 assists for the Greater Manchester side in the 2016/17 season. This created considerable interest in acquiring his services at the end that term, with the race for his signature eventually won by Colwyn Bay.

 

He turned out for Bay 42 times last season and ended the season in brilliant form, scoring 6 goals in their last four games, including a hat-trick in a 5-1 home win over Clitheroe.

 

Mulholland (pictured), 30, has played for several clubs in the North West such as Flixton, Altrincham, FC United of Manchester and Chorley before joining Bay.

 

Starting his career up top, his incredible form for Flixton, scoring 44 goals in one season, brought him to the attention of several Football League and Conference sides.

 

He decided to join Altrincham, before a move to FC United where he made 95 appearances, scoring 11 goals.

 

Granite, 26, is a centre-back who rose through the ranks playing local football in Greater Manchester before joining Evo-Stick North side Mossley AFC in 2014.

 

The following summer he joined Mossley`s league rivals Trafford, playing two seasons at Shawe View and picking up a host of accolades at the end of the 2016/17 season, including player, players` and supporters` player of the season.

 

His progress didn’t go unnoticed and he joined Evo-Stik Premier side Ashton United last summer for an undisclosed fee, captaining the Tameside club to promotion to the National League North last season.
