Attacking midfielder Scott Chaplin has completed his move to the Millfield from local Ryman League Div One North side Needham Market.
The 23 year-old who lives in Stowmarket has agreed a one-year deal to become Stuart Crawford's third summer signing. Chaplin scored 7 times in 20 starts with Needham last season as well as making 18 appearances from the bench.
Chaplin was with Ipswich Town until he left school. He then join the Bury Town college where he progress into the Bury Town 1st team.
"This is another excellent capture for us. Last season we didn't keep the ball anywhere near as much as i'd like and at times we lacked that bit of quality to thread a killer pass. Scott is very gifted technically and can offer us something different to what we already have in the squad. Richard Wilkins (Bury Town Manager) told me he should be a big player at this level and hopefully with regular football he will play a big part in our season. He can play as a wide man on both side and also behind a striker. He also weighs in with goals which is great."
