Scottish Football League newcomers Annan Athletic have added two new faces to their squad.
Defender Kevin Neilson arrives from former East of Scotland League rivals Dalbeattie Star.
And 22-year-old goalkeeper Craig Summersgill has joined from Unibond League outfit Newcastle Blue Star.
They follow Lee Hoolikin, a 25-year-old left sided midfielder, who was with Blue Square Premier outfit Barrow last season, to Annan.
The new Third Division club's manager, former Brechin City defender Harry Cairney, is making locally-based players his priority after they won the vote to replace bankrupt Gretna in the SFL.
Meanwhile, Graeme Bell, fellow striker Darren Johnstone, defenders Simon Ruddick, Peter Watson and Tom Short, plus midfielders Stephen Sloan and Mike Jack, have had their contracts renewed.
Annan's longest-serving player, midfielder Chris Jardine, who is in his 11th season with Annan, had earlier signed a new two-year contract.
Goalkeeper Dougie Calder had been the first-ever Annan player to sign an SFL contract when he extended his stay.
Midfielder Lewis Walker left Annan to pursue a football scholarship in the USA.
