“Jamie has been outstanding for us from the minute he signed – he’s been inspirational on the pitch and a model professional off the pitch.

"He brought a calmness to our defence and team from his first game. He’s made excellent saves in nearly every game we’ve played.

“Jamie has helped us when building the game from the back – he makes good decisions, which is vital as a goalkeeper.

"He is a great example, not only to young Kyle Bow, who will learn even more from him, but to all his team mates.

“His experience shines through every day.

"Jamie is enjoying his work and playing the style of football we’ve been producing. Long may that continue.”
