Colwyn Bay bring in Joyce

Colwyn Bay boss Lee Williams has brought in midfielder Charlie Joyce on a month’s loan from Blue Square Bet Premier side Southport.

The 19-year-old former Morecambe player is rated highly by Southport manager Liam Watson, and will help provide cover for the team as they look to stave off relegation from the Blue Square Bet North division.

He is able to operate either on the right or in the center of midfield, and Williams said: “He is a very competitive midfielder and is the sort of player we need.”

It follows the recent acquisition of striker Arthur Gnahoua on loan from Macclesfield Town, who made his debut as a substitute in Saturday’s 4-1 home defeat at the hands of Workington - a performance Williams described as “embarrassing”.

Colwyn Bay also hope to make a further signing, with former Wrexham and Bangor City player Jamie Crowther expected to put pen to paper on a deal with the club after impressing on trial.

Another versatile player, Crowther can operate either in midfield or central defence.

Bay fans will be hoping the new signings can help alter a run of form that has seen the club lose their last five league fixtures, and win only five of their last 25 in all competitions.
