AFC Telford United hope to have breathed fresh life into their season with the capture of long-term target Sam Whittall from Rushall Olympic.Thirty-year-old midfielder Whittall is a club legend at Rushall, where he played more than 300 games in eight seasons at Dales Lane.
But Bucks boss Kevin Wilkin has managed to add vital experience to his struggling squad with the capture of Whittall, who has been on Telford's radar for some time and was a target before the start of the current campaign. Newdale-based Whittall opted to stay at Rushall and lead his side into National North having helped them to step two and has started in all 11 of their league fixtures so far this season. Rushall are 19th from 24 in the early National North table after three wins.
Rushall won promotion from Southern Central via the play-offs last season following a dramatic penalty shootout success over Nuneaton Borough.
