Four more put pen to paper on agreed deals
Four of last season's squad have now made their place at Accrington Stanley official by putting pen to paper on their agreed deals this afternoon. Michael Symes, Andy Procter, Robert Grant and Peter Murphy have all signed their contracts to take their place in the Stanley squad for 2009/10.
Striker Michael Symes spent a month here at Accrington Stanley at the end of last season and has now signed a one year deal following his release by Shrewsbury Town. The 25 year old made seen appearances for us last season, and scored the winning goal at Grimsby back in April. Meanwhile Andy Procter has signed a new two year deal, keeping him at the club until 2012. The 26 year old central midfielder joined Stanley in February 2002 and ha been a key member of the side throughout our rise back into the Football League.
Former youth team players Robert Grant and Peter Murphy have also signed new deals. Winger Grant made his debut as a 16 year old youth team player at MK Dons in May 2007, now 19 and after his first year as a full professional he has signed for a further twelve months. Defender Peter Murphy has put pen to paper on a six month deal after missing most of last season through injury. The 19 year old can play anywhere across the back four and started last season well before a knee injury saw him ruled him out for most of the year.
