Hawkridge and Marshall join Matlock Town

Basford United have agreed the sale of Terry Hawkridge and Marcus Marshall to Matlock Town for an undisclosed fee.

The club have accepted the offer following a request and are now free of the 2-year contractual obligations for both players.

Marshall, 32, arrived at Greenwich Avenue from Matlock on deadline day back in March 2020, but never featured due to the 2019-20 season’s curtailment through Covid-19 and only played 12 games in the annulled 2020-21 campaign.

Despite injuries and suspension, the striker made 24 appearances and scored three times in all competitions this season.

Midfielder Hawkridge put pen-to-paper in September last year after the extent of Callum Chettle’s long-term injury became clear.

The 31-year-old has also featured 24 times in United colours this season.

The club would like to wish both Terry and Marcus all the best in Derbyshire and thank them for their efforts.
