Lido sign former Newtown defender

Lee Hartshorn

AFAN Lido have signed former Newtown defender Lee Hartshorn.

A tall central defender who finally joined Newtown in June 2010 after a January move from Merthyr Tydfil was frustrated by the transfer regulations, the 25-year-old had spent two seasons at Penydarren Park following a move from Welsh League outfit Merthyr Saints. 

After a season and a half at Latham Park during which he scored once from 40 (+1) Welsh Premier appearances, Hartshorn left the Robins due to new work commitments during the first half of last season.
