Hodkinson pens new deal

Bootle Football Club are delighted to confirm that Ben Hodkinson has committed to the club for another season.

Ben’s commitment is a huge boost both on and off the pitch, with his quality and professionalism making him an important figure within the squad.

Everyone at the club is pleased to see Ben extend his stay, and we look forward to seeing him in action again next season. Manager, staff, players and supporters alike are excited to keep him in a Bucks shirt.

To date, Ben has made 226 appearances for the Bucks, scoring 99 goals. He now needs just five more to equal Tom Peterson’s record for the club.

Manager, Alan Morgan, said, "We're delighted to get Ben tied down for next season. Ben ended up with 16 goals this season and he missed a big chunk of it. He’s a nightmare for defenders in this league.

He knows the club, the fans love him, We’re building something here and you need your big players with you. Ben’s a big part of that."
