Luke Purnell signs for Marine
Swindon Supermarine FC and Head Coach Stuart Fleetwood are delighted to announce the signing of goalkeeper Luke Purnell, from Bridgwater United on a 1-year contract.
The former Weston-super-Mare keeper, joins Fleet’s side ahead of the new season, bringing with him bags of experience, including a decade at Weston-super-Mare. Purnell was part of the Weston side that won promotion from the Southern League to the National League South in 2022/23 as champions.
Fleets was delighted to get the deal done. He said to club media “To secure someone of Luke’s experience and pedigree is really pleasing. He’s bought into the project and vision we see at this club. His leadership and obvious quality will help the younger players in our squad also. A GK was the main position we needed to fix and we’ve signed an excellent one in Luke”.
This one’s a real keeper, and we can’t wait to see him at the Webbswood. Welcome to the club, Luke!
