Birthday Greetings: Jimmy Ball

Many happy returns to Jimmy Ball, who turns 22 today.

Midfielder Jimmy is in his second season at Edgeley Park, having joined the Hatters in September 2016 following a brief spell with Stalybridge Celtic – and just a week after scoring for Celtic against us at Bower Fold! His first appearance in a County shirt saw him put the ball in Darlington’s net at Bishop Auckland, and he finished last term as our second-top scorer with eight goals. For the current campaign, and despite playing in a deeper role, Jimmy has three to his name so far – including, most memorably, last month’s late, late headed equaliser at Boston.

Jimmy previously played under Jim Gannon for Northwich Victoria (during 2015/16), and helped them reach the Second Round of the FA Cup and the Northern Premier League Division One North Play-off Final. He was also one of three current Hatters (the others being Michael Clarke and Scott Duxbury) who appeared for the ‘Vics’ in their Cheshire Senior Cup Semi-final defeat at EP a year ago last March.

Very best wishes to Jimmy from the Club – and from Hatters everywhere!
