We are delighted to announce the signing of Mike Baker from Larkhall Athletic, with Mike being added to our matchday squad for this weekend's match away to Winchester.
Mike joins from Larkhall this week following their fantastic run in the FA Trophy that saw them travel up to Stockport with Baker leading the side out as Captain. The tough tackling centre back comes in after 4 seasons at Larkhall, after being at Bristol Rovers Academy during his development years.
Danny Greaves commented, "I am delighted to get Mike Baker through the door. He has been on our radar for a while. He has captained a Larkhall side who have always been competitive in this league for a number of years, and has been one of the best central defenders in the league for the past couple of seasons. He is a big strong lad, who can also play a bit which is important to us. He will add vital experience and leadership to our group for the second half of the season. It was clear during my conversation with him this week that he is coming to us for all of the right reasons, and is very hungry to help us deliver on our objectives for the season."
Mike Baker commented, "I’ve had other clubs come in for me, but not enough to temp me to leave Larkhall. Frome is a club that I believe is going places, I want to win a promotion and hopefully play in the league above next year. The lads have been very welcoming and have already made me feel comfortable, I know a few from playing with them before.
Welcome Mike to Frome Town!
