Midfielder Jason Kennedy has joined the club after spending the closing stages of last season in the Moors side on loan from National League outfit Hartlepool United.

The experienced 33-year-old signed for Hartlepool in July 2019.

He began his career with Middlesbrough where he emerged from the academy to play a handful of games in the Premier League before establishing himself as one of the most sought-after midfielders in the lower divisions.

A loan move to Darlington in 2008 was turned permanent and he played over 50 games for the Quakers before securing a move to Rochdale where he made another 200 appearances.

His next destination was Bradford City where he spent a couple of seasons before putting down some roots in Carlisle United in 2015.

He became a fans’ favourite in Cumbria and made more than 100 appearances before his departure at the end of the 2018/19 campaign.
