Quakers sign Reece Styche from Tamworth

[poppyfield]

He has signed

Darlington manager Tommy Wright says that new signing Reece Styche is “chomping at the bit” to play for Quakers, as he explained to the official website



Quakers have today completed the signing of striker Reece Styche from fellow Vanarama National League club Tamworth.

Reece, who is 28, is currently the fourth highest scorer in the division with ten goals to his name, and has plenty of National League experience.

After starting his career at Hednesford and then playing for Grantham, Coalville, Shepshed Dynamo and Chasetown, he established a prolific goalscoring reputation at Forest Green Rovers, for whom he scored 35 goals in 108 matches between 2010 and 2014.

He had a brief spell on loan at Wycombe, before he moved to Kidderminster for two seasons.

He played for Macclesfield and Gateshead before having a loan spell at Nuneaton (when Tommy Wright was in charge) last season, and joined Tamworth in the summer.

Darlington manager Tommy Wright said; “Reece is a perfect fit for this football club and is exactly what we want. Everything I think this club is about in terms of presence, desire and workrate is embodied by Reece. He will become a cult hero, and he is relishing the opportunity to play for the club.

“He has plenty of experience from higher divisions from earlier in his career, and his all round game really excites me. I have known him for a long time, and I know that he will give 110 per cent for this club.”

Reece will make his debut in Friday’s FA Trophy third qualifying round tie against Harrogate Town.

We would like to wish Reece a happy and successful stay at the club.

Exactly what we needed in terms of someone to lead the line

Exactly, wondering if TW will change his tactics/lineup to suit Styche style of play

Apart from his spell at Forest Green, he has not stayed anywhere very long. Even when at Kidderminster he had 2 loan spells at Tamworth

Must be a handy player though, seeing as though Tamworth loaned him twice before managing to sign him permanent this summer, and also Macclesfield loaned him twice.

Also his goals record is wrong - it says Tamworth 17(6) this season but he's scored 10 league goals

Record is stated to be accurate to August 2017 - but then states goals/ appearances this season


There must be something about him ( as you say) as TW has played with him and briefly managed him and has now signed him again.

Wouldn't think so - stick Styche into the team and system which played on Saturday and suddenly I reckon we'd be a lot more threatening.

Lets hope he can bang one in on Friday
