 Mae Clwb Pêl-Droed Tref Aberystwyth yn falch o groesawu Elliot Scotcher i'r Clwb, yn ddiweddar o Hwlffordd. Chwaraewr canol-cae yn bennaf ond â phrofiad yng nghanol yr amddiffyn, mae Elliot yn ymuno cyn i'r Gwyrdd a Duon croesawu Briton Ferry Llansawel i Goedlan y Parc ar ddydd Sadwrn i orffen cyfnod cyntaf y tymor. Aberystwyth Town Football Club are delighted to welcome Elliot Scotcher to the Club, most recently of Haverfordwest County. Primarily a midfielder but with experience at central defence, Elliot joins Town ahead of our meeting this Saturday with Briton Ferry Llansawel at Park Avenue to close out Phase 1. Previously of the Cardiff City and Ipswich Town academies, Elliot is well-known to fans of the Cymru Leagues having made well over 100 appearances across the Welsh domestic competitions. First as a student at Cardiff Metropolitan University (UWIC), Elliot was a key figure in the side's rise through the divisions under former Seasider Christian Edwards and thereafter joined Merthyr Town in 2015 following his graduation. Elliot's first move into Welsh domestic football in fact came at Park Avenue, as he joined for a brief spell in January 2017 before a season at Barry Town. Aside from a season at Carmarthen Town in 2019/20, Elliot has since been on the books at Haverfordwest County in his native Pembrokeshire, however has been recovering from a serious knee injury sustained two years ago. Now back to fitness, Elliot joins the Black and Greens for a second spell and boosts Antonio Corbisiero's options in the middle of the park for the remainder of the season. Elliot told us: "After discussions with Corbs he made me feel wanted. Although the club are in a difficult position in the table, his mentality was very positive and he made me feel like I want to be a part of that. I feel it was the right decision. The last two years have been incredibly challenging for me in my playing career. Being sidelined for two years due to a serious knee injury has shown me just how difficult the recovery process can be, both physically and mentally. Thankfully, I’ve made it through the toughest part. I’ve put in a lot of hard work to get back to this point, and I’m excited to take the next step and return to the field. Hopefully my best years are yet to come. I’m the type of player who enjoys getting on the ball and controlling the game from deeper areas. While my primary position has always been central midfield, I’ve also been used as a central defender in certain systems. This experience in different roles has made me a more versatile player, and I’m happy to contribute wherever I can help the team. I also like taking set pieces, which has probably been where I’ve scored most of my goals in my career." Manager Antonio Corbisiero commented: "We're over the moon to welcome a player of Elliot's quality and experience. He will bolster our squad immensely both on and off the pitch and so we're very excited to see him complement the squad and our way of playing. A huge welcome to Elliot from us all at the club and we wish him all the best." Croeso i'r Clwb, Elliot!  Comments are closed.
