Wilkinson boost for Brighouse
By James Gordon
Brighouse full-back Joe Wilkinson has turned down a move to Gainsborough Trinity to commit his future to the club.
Wilkinson, 24, started his career at Huddersfield Town before moving on to Hyde United, Bradford Park Avenue, Buxton and Ossett, and arrived at Brighouse last summer.
He told the Brighouse Echo: "When I also weighed up the travelling from my new home in Cleckheaton and was looking at a two hour plus round trip on training nights, I also didn't fancy that.
“It would have been a move back up the ladder going into a side in the NPL Premier Division but I was very happy and in good form at Brighouse until my season-ending injury back in November against Colne."
Meanwhile, centre back Harrison Beeden, who spent time on loan at Brighouse last season, has been released by Rotherham United.
