Colne pulled off somewhat of a coup by signing Stopforth from Chester`s new league rivals Stockport County just ahead of the signing deadline in March 2018.

 

Stopforth is a central midfielder who started his career at Blackburn Rovers where he earned his first professional deal.

 

He’s also had spells in America with New Orleans Jesters and Baton Rouge Cult Capitals, and in England with Kendal Town, AFC Fylde, Ramsbottom United and Salford City.

 

He had two spells with Stockport, returning in July 2017 after spending seven months out in Australia playing for Mitchelton FC.

 

The 31-year-old now re-unites with joint-managers Anthony Johnson and Bernard Morley, who he played under at both Ramsbottom and Salford.
