....Evo-Stik Northern Premier League Premier Division rivals Matlock Town.

Born in Sheffield, Cribley played much of his football in the US college system playing for Herkimer County College for two years before having two years with the Syracuse University in New York State.

He had a trial with Sheffield United in 2012 and has also featured for Sheffield FC.

He joined Barrow AFC in mid-December 2013 and made his debut in the home defeat by Solihull Moors before spending two months on loan with Hyde United, scoring important goals for the Tigers from the number ten role during his time there.

He originally joined Matlock on loan before making the move permanent in 2015.

The tricky winger quickly became a fan favourite on and off the field and made a huge contribution during his time with the Gladiators before it was mutually agreed to part ways this week.

Cribley follows experienced midfielder Ricky Ravenhill into the Don Amott Arena.

Ravenhill joins from Derbyshire rivals Buxton.

The 37-year-old boasts Football League experience with Doncaster Rovers, Grimsby Town, Darlington, Notts County, Bradford City, Northampton Town and Mansfield Town.

He was part of the Doncaster side that won back-to-back promotions from the National League and League Two between 2002 and 2004.

He also won League Two with Notts County in 2009/10 and was part of the Bradford City side that lost 5-0 to Swansea City in the 2012/13 League Cup Final as well as gaining another promotion from League Two in the play-offs against Northampton Town in the same season.

Ravenhill has most recently been at Sports league rivals Buxton, and was on the bench when the Bucks won 3-1 at the Don Amott Arena earlier this month.

Sports Boss John McGrath told Press & Media Officers Sam & Kerry Goldsworthy: “I am delighted to welcome Ricky to the club.

“Ricky is a player I have admired and got on with for a while and I am thrilled to bring such an experienced midfielder to the club. He has had a lot of success over the years with clubs at Football League level and hopefully, he can bring that extra bit of experience into the dressing room with what we already have. He’ll also be a good asset for our younger players who they can learn off. But besides all that Ricky is also a quality and highly skilled footballer who will only improve our current squad”.
