Both Ash Harper and Cameron Allen has joined the Development Squad setup on short-term deals, adding to Chris Hargreaves options heading into Saturday’s game against Yate Town and beyond.

Harper, a right-back by trade, spent last season on loan at Weston-Super-Mare, with Allen a striker that finished the 2016/17 season as the top scorer in the City U18’s side.

Speaking about the addition of the duo, Chris Hargraves commented, “We are pleased to secure the services of both Ash and Cameron.

“The pair have been training with us since we have returned for the pre-season and know that they have a chance to impress and complement the core of the squad that we have retained from a successful campaign last season.
