Ashington Football Club is delighted to announce the return of Andrew Johnson to his hometown club. After successful spells with West Allotment Celtic, Spennymoor Town, Morpeth, and most recently a brief stint at Newcastle Blue Star, Andrew brings a wealth of experience and quality to the squad. We are excited to welcome him back and look forward to seeing his impact on the pitch as we continue to build for the future. Andrew will be available for Tuesday nights home fixture when we welcome Bradford Park Avenue to Woodhorn Lane.
The signing of Andrew (AJ) provides evidence that the Club’s Interim Management Team have been granted full autonomy to strengthen the squad in response to ongoing injuries and player availability issues. This decision ensures that the team can remain competitive on the pitch while the club continues its search for a new permanent manager. The interim team has the full support of the board to make necessary adjustments, ensuring that Ashington can navigate this challenging period effectively and continue to perform at a high level.
