Striker
Jake Newman arrives from league rivals Bedford Town having also signed dual
forms with Uhlsport United Counties League Premier Division outfit Desborough
Town, for who he bagged a brace last Saturday.
The
much-travelled 29-year-old had been with the Eagles since January 2020 after
joining from neighbours Kempston Rovers, where he had started last season.
The
proven goalscorer at Steps 3 and 4 level has also consistently found the net
with his previous sides, including 34 goals in 51 appearances for Kempston and
27 goals in 57 appearances spread over two spells with AFC Rushden &
Diamonds.
His
other previous clubs include AFC Stamford, Spalding United, Wellingborough
Town, Oadby Town, Kettering Town, St Ives Town and Peterborough Sports.
Midfielder
Ashton Grant re-joins AFC from Southern Premier Division Central outfit Royston
Town.
The
23-year-old had signed for the Crows in September having spent the 2019/20
season split between AFC Dunstable and Spartan South Midlands League Premier
Division outfit Biggleswade United.
He
started out at Barton Rovers and has also been on the books at Crawley Green,
Dunstable Town and Bedford Town.
Another
midfielder, Charlie Pattison (pictured), has also moved to Creasey Park.
Pattison
joined the MK Dons' academy at under-9 level, progressing through various age
groups and into the club's development squad, eventually going on to captain
the club's under-18s.
In
September 2018, whilst still an academy player, Pattison featured for the first
team against Peterborough United in an EFL Trophy group stage fixture.
Following
a spell on loan with AFC`s league rivals Welwyn Garden City, Pattison signed
professional terms with the Dons in June 2019.
During
last season, he enjoyed short spells on loan with Southern Premier Division
Central sides Kings Langley and Biggleswade Town. However, at the conclusion of
the campaign, Pattison was one of nine players released from the Dons.
