Brightlingsea call a Baptiste!

Forward Francis Jno-Baptiste signs on at Brightlingsea

Brightlingsea Regent have announced the arrival of forward Francis Jno-Baptiste, who has most recently been turning out for Chesham United in Pitching In Southern Premier.

Francis came through the ranks at Crystal Palace, playing both Under 18 and Under 21 football at Selhurst Park. He then decided to try his luck in Sweden, and played for both Östersunds FK and AFC Eskilstuna before returning to the UK, and joining United.

He had a debut to forget in Saturday's mauling against Aveley, but he and his team mates will hope to put that right against Bowers & Pitsea in the Velocity Cup tonight.
