Defensive duo Loyiso Recci and Lee Thomas have agreed to join new manager Carl Adams at Rugby Town.

Following the return of Justin Marsden as player/assistant yesterday, Recci and Thomas also make the move from Stratford to Butlin Road.

Left-back Thomas scored two goals in 43 appearances for Stratford last season after joining from Hinckley last summer while he has also had spells with Southam, Long Buckby and Bedworth.

The 26-year-old full back is a one-time Valley youth player and also had brief spell with the first team back in 2010 making one substitute appearance.

Powerful centre-back Recci scored two goals in 37 league appearances for Stratford in the Southern League Premier last season.

The 27-year-old defender helped Stratford to promotion from the Southern League Division One South & West in 2015 after a spell with Bedworth United.
