Setchell swoops to bring striker Tomlinson back to Corby Town


Attacker Tomlinson is a familiar face the Steelman supporters, as he scored 14 times in a lucrative spell at the club in the second half of the 2023/24 season.
He landed at Steel Park after becoming a free agent following the demise of Nuneaton Borough, and as well as scoring a stack of goals he was also attributed with 19 assists.

Hide AdTomlinson left in the summer of 2024 and has since played at Step 3 for Bedford Town and Spalding United, before ending last season at Step 4, helping Berkhamsted to promotion from the Pitching-In Southern League Central Division via he play-offs.
Tomlinson netted in the play-off final as Flackwell Heath were hammered 5-0.
Manager Gary Setchell is happy to have enticed Tomlinson back to Steel Park, particularly following last week's news that top-scorer Fletcher Toll has left the club to sign for Vanarama National League North side King's Lynn Town.
“I am delighted to be working with Connor again," Setchell told @corbytownfc.

"With the team we are putting together, having Conns back gives us plenty of forward thinking options either through the middle wide areas at the top of the pitch.”
