WORDS FROM NEW SIGNING BRANDON WEBSTER

We caught up with new signing Brandon Webster after signing for the club for the 2023/24 season

“I’m really pleased to have signed for Brighouse Town. When Vill told me his ambitions for the new season and the role I was going to play in the team, it was a no-brainer but to sign. A lot of players have come through the door at this club, developed and then have progressed to play at higher levels. It shows the club is going in the right direction and the management team are doing a great job in developing players in which it’s something I want to be apart of.

I am a very quick athletic player that can either play full back, wing back or as a winger. I am an attacking minded player that loves a trick to beat a player and to get crosses into the box. I am very comfortable on the ball and I love to play attractive football.

I was previously last season playing at Loughborough Dynamo and Ossett United. I have been in a professional background most of my playing career from being at Scunthorpe United from the age of 9 to 16 before afterwards having been at Sheffield United U23s for a short time. My aim is to get back into the professional game and environment with hopefully being given the opportunity too. My aim this season to to score a minimum of 10 goals and provide as many assists as possible.

Vill did his research about me, watching some of my previous games and he was really impressed with my attributes going forward and especially defensively in 1 vs 1 situations. When Ossett played Brighouse in the 4-0 defeat towards the end of last season, all the management said I was the best player so it was really encouraging to hear that they had noticed me and wanted me for this season. The team play attractive football and the management encourage players to express themselves.

I can’t wait to get started to showcase my attributes preseason and help the team to push for promotion this season.”
