Altrincham FC have signed former Burton Albion player Danny Holmes, following a series of successful pre-season games in which he has played both in midfield and defence. Born on 17 November 1986, 23 year-old Danny started out as a Port Vale trainee and then joined Burton Albion from where he was released when they reached the Football League in 2009. Altrincham were already on his trail before the midfielder joined Ilkeston Town for 2009-10.
Leaving Moss Lane is goalkeeper Russell Saunders, who has been released after six starts in two spells with the club. His first appearance was as a loan player in 2007 from Wigan Athletic, when he was carried off with a leg injury after an hour of his debut. He returned to Moss Lane as an Altrincham player for the 09-10 season. The Club wishes him well for the future and thanks him for his services.
