The 37-year-old has arrived from SkyBet League One side Doncaster Rovers, where he also enjoyed a spell as interim manager during the second half of the 2020/21 campaign following Darren Moore's departure to Sheffield Wednesday.
Doncaster-born
Butler made more than 500 senior appearances during his time as a professional
footballer.
He
signed for the Rovers in January 2015 after making his loan move from Sheffield
United permanent.
A
former Scunthorpe United academy product, he made the grade at Glanford Park
and would go on to make more than 150 appearances for the Iron.
From
there, he moved to Huddersfield Town, Walsall and the Blades before heading
back to his place of birth.
Butler
has now committed his future to the Pilgrims having officially parted ways with
Rovers on Friday.
Manager
Craig Elliott told https://www.bostonunited.co.uk: "I
am delighted to bring Andy Butler to Boston United. He is a natural leader with
a wealth of experience.
"He
will not only be a big player for us but will help get the best out of the
other players around him.
"He
was a League One player last season, playing a big part in Doncaster Rovers'
season on and off the pitch. I am really looking forward to working with him
this season". |
