Torpey re-signs as Reds go top

FC United have been boosted by the news that former player Steve Torpey has today re-signed for the club hours before the Reds went to the top of the league with the 5-1 defeat of Retford.

Torpey had been a target for a number of clubs higher up the leagues after playing in the Conference for the last four years but has decided to rejoin the Reds following a successful pre-season campaign.

The attacking-midfielder was a firm fan favourite during our inaugural season, scoring 17 goals in 32 appearances before being offered a full-time contract by the then Conference side, Halifax Town.
