Marine complete Solomon deal

Solomon began his playing career at St Peter FC and impressed in his first season.

The prolific forward later joined the Bull's and became the club’s record scorer in the Combined Counties Football League, scoring 60 goals in 71 appearances.

Solomon initially attracted attention from clubs in League Two as well as Championship side Luton but it was the Merseyside club who won the race for his signature.

His goal-scoring ability will be a huge asset to the Mariners this season as they sit fourteenth in the NPL Premier Division, scoring only thirteen goals from their opening ten games so far.

Marine manager Neil Young commented on the signing of Sol- he said “We tried to bring Sol to the football club this time last year but he decided to stay with his studies back home in Jersey.

“Now however we are very happy to have been able to get an agreement with him to come now.

“His goal record speaks for itself and it’s important we don’t put too much expectation on him too soon and let him get used to his new environment, teammates and ultimately the level.”

Solomon could make his debut on Saturday as the Mariners travel to Broadhurst Park to face FC United of Manchester.
