Sudbury sign trialist Julian Smith

AFC Sudbury have signed former Harrow Borough defender Julian Smith, after impressing in pre-season.

The former Watford youth player becomes the eighth new player to join the club, bringing Jamie Godbold's summer signings to twelve.

The central defender started his career at Spartan South Midlands side Rayners Lane, but was part of the Harrow side which was relegated to the Bostik North, last season.

Smith wore the number six shirt in AFC's 4-1 win over Haverhill Rovers, and wore the number five jersey in the win over Ipswich last week.

Meanwhile, Stanway Rovers have signed former Sudbury players Jordan Blackwell and Wayne Blackman.
