Diamonds bring in winger Pattison

Rushden and Diamonds have signed winger Matt Pattison on a one-year deal, with the option for another year.

The 25-year-old has played for Woking for the last two seasons after spells with Farnborough and Camberley.

"We are delighted to have secured Matt's services because he is a very talented player," Rushden assistant manager Michael Stone said.

"He adds both youthfulness and experience to the squad and can play on both the left and right."

"He is very direct with the ball and enjoys bringing others into play and it is this contribution to the team that we are looking forward to seeing in the near future," added Stone.
