Breckin back at Saltergate

Wed 01 Jul, 05:34 PM


Chesterfield have re-signed Ian Breckin following the defender`s release by Nottingham Forest.

The 33-year-old, who turned down a move to Football League newcomers Burton, has signed a two-year deal at Saltergate and becomes John Sheridan`s first signing since he was installed as manager last month.

Former Spireites captain Breckin made 249 appearances for the club between 1997 and 2002.

He said: "I am delighted to be returning to Chesterfield at a time of historic change for the club with the move to the new stadium."

Manager Sheridan added: "I am really pleased to sign a player with great experience who has a hunger to help us get out of League Two.

"We have done well to get him as a number of other clubs were competing for his signature."

  4. Surprised Billy let him go. Thought we were only­ interested in the over 30's.
    But dropping the­ sarcasm; best of luck Ian. You did yourself proud in a­ Forest shirt. I'm sure you will do the same back in­ Chesterfield.
