Parker heads back into the Valley

Cray Valley PM have welcomed the return of Freddie Parker to their squad. 

Forward Freddie first joined the Millers in the summer of 2023, and he made thirty six appearances and scored six goals as they won a two-handed tussle with Ramsgate to take the Pitching In Isthmian South East title. Forty three top flight appearances the following season brought twenty two goals and a Premier Play Off Semi Final place for the Millers, and then he stepped away from the game for a season. 

Parker, a forward, originally joined the club from Sevenoaks Town, where he scored fifteen times in thirty eight appearances during 22-33 season. That followed six in eight matches at the end of the previous campaign, after joining the club from Lewes. 

Freddie also had a loan spell at Barking during the 21-22 campaign, scoring six goals in six appearances, and made seventeen appearances for the Rooks. He was previously with then-Rooks boss Tony Russell at Cray Wanderers, where he managed eight goals in fourteen games during 2020-21. He was part of the first team squad at Hayes Lane for four years. 

He came through the youth ranks at Millwall before first joining Wanderers, and also spent time at Crystal Palace.
