Chester's triple swoop

Chester City boss Mark Wright has stepped up his quest to lead the club back into the Football League by recruiting three more new signings, all with League experience.

Wright has captured 34-year-old ex-Bolton, Preston and Shrewsbury winger Mickey Brown, who has chalked up almost 500 League appearances during his career, following his departure from Nationwide Conference champions Boston United.

Former Wolves and Wrexham midfielder Jimmy Kelly has signed after being released by Doncaster Rovers and Wright has also snapped up former Manchester United youngster Michael Twiss.

The striker, whose league debut came following a move to Port Vale, was top-scorer at Leigh RMI last season and although Leigh offered him a new deal, the 25-year-old has opted to make the switch to the Deva Stadium.

The trio join ex-St Mirren and Brighton striker Dave Cameron, who has signed after leaving Lincoln City, with all four signing two-year deals at Chester.

Wright has already signed Kevin McIntyre from Doncaster and Kidderminster youngster Ben Davies since the end of the season and plans to bring in another two or three as he rebuilds the City squad ready for a crack at promotion.
