Albion strengthen defence with Dempsey

Former Farsley defender Matt Dempsey has signed for Ossett Albion

Ossett Albion have heavily strengthened their defence with the signing of Scarborough Athletic centre-back Matt Dempsey.

The capture of the vastly-experienced Evo Stik player is the biggest since the arrival of chairman John Chidlaw and his business partners to Dimple Wells.

For the past seven years, Bradford-based Dempsey has been a top Evo Stik defender for the likes of Garforth Town, Farsley Celtic, Hyde United and Shaw Lane AFC.

Albion visit Droylsden this Saturday.
