Holt made 39 appearances for league rivals Runcorn Town last season, scoring 5 goals from midfield with his all-action style.

Manager Simon Burton told his club`s website: "I'm absolutely delighted to get Joe in. I tried to sign him last season and it didn't come off, but we spoke a couple of weeks ago and felt we had a chance. Joe is a fantastic signing for the club, he's got a brilliant engine and is technically superb.

“He'll fit perfectly with the style of football we play."

Chairman Paul Manning added: "Joe is another who we have been tracking as we looked to re-model the squad to put a team on the pitch that can win football matches for the club. Joe is certainly in that category and again being a local lad, he will easily fit right into our current squad."

Holt commented: "I'm happy to be joining a club that has great ambition and I'm looking forward to playing front of those fans.

“I'd like to thank Runcorn Town for the time with spent with them, but am now just looking forward to getting stuck into pre-season with the lads and playing games for the Purples".
