The Carlisle-born 24-year-old has played all his
senior football north of the border, listing Queen of the South, Annan Athletic
and Gretna 2008 amongst his former clubs.
Like fellow recruit, Alex
Mitchell, Atkinson has spent time with Annan which, coincidentally, is the
destination of last season’s Reds keeper, Aaran Taylor.
Atkinson was virtually an
ever-present for Gretna last season in the Scottish Lowland League and could be making a
swift return to Raydale Park with one of Reds’ pre-season games scheduled there
next month. |
