Slough Town have signed 31-year-old defender David Woozley from Windsor & Eton, ahead of today's league fixture at Arlesey Town.

Woozley began his career as a trainee with Crystal Palace, turning professional in August 1997. He played 22 times in the league and six times in cup games the following season.

He then had spells at various other Football League clubs, most notably Torquay United, where he played 60 games. In 2006, he became joint manager of Crawley Town after a spell at Oxford United, but the following year, he announced that he was to leave Crawley and retire from professional football, aged 27, to take up a job with the Fire Service.

Woozley then continued his non-league football career with Farnborough, before spells with Staines Town and Carshalton Athletic.

David signed for Windsor & Eton in the 2009/10 season and helped them to win promotion to the Zamaretto Premier Division. He later became club captain and played 33 games this season before the Royalists' demise which this week saw the club wound up.

David takes a place in the Rebels' starting eleven for today's game.

Leaving the club this week was Yiadom Yeboah, who played 38 times for the Rebels, scoring twice. We wish Yiadom all the best for the future.
