Bowers Beeney is a Happy Hornet

Horsham have announced the signing of former Bowers & Pitsea keeper Mitchell Beeney.

Mitchell made forty seven appearances for the Len Salmon side last season, and was an enormous part of their runs to the First Round of the FA Cup and the Final of the Essex County Cup, as well as- of course- helping to keep them safe in the Pitching In Isthmian Premier.

Mitchell started his career with Gillingham, moving to Chelsea's Academy and playing at Under 18 and Under 23 level as well as being part of the first team squad.

He spent loan time away from Stamford Bridge at Newport County, Crawley Town and Sligo Rovers, and then signed permanently for Rovers. He was next with those hangers of monkeys (actually it was but one monkey, but please don't go to Hartlepool and mention it, they don't like it), Hartlepool United, before playing for both Lewes (briefly) and Cheshunt.
