Gibson returns to Gladiators fold

Matlock Town are pleased to announce the return of forward Montel Gibson following talks with manager Adam Clayton and owner David Hilton.

Montel has football league experience, having made 24 appearances in League Two for Notts County, where he started his career, and most recently for Grimsby Town under legendary manager Ian Holloway during the 2020/21 season.

More recently, Gibson played for AFC Telford United in the Southern Premier League Central Division. He netted 24 times in two seasons at the SEAH Stadium, including 16 last season as he helped his side make the play-off final.

He moved to Hereford at the beginning of last season, where he scored on his debut in a 3-0 win over South Shields, going on to score seven goals in total before a move to the Proctor Cars Stadium at the beginning of September.

Montel went on to score an extraordinary 22 goals in 36 appearances for the Gladiators, becoming a huge fan favourite in the process. The fans will be thrilled to see the forwards return and can look forward to seeing him continue to build upon his legacy at the club.

Welcome back, Monts!
