New Mills FC is delighted to confirm that vastly experience defender Chris Pauley will remain with the club for the upcoming season, continuing his journey with The Millers after two outstanding campaigns with the club in the North West Counties Football League First Division South.

Pauley, who was named First Division South Player of the Month back in March 2024, has been a key figure in the squad since arriving at Church Lane, impressing supporters with his quality, and leadership on the pitch. His decision to stay and continue his playing career is a major boost for the club as they look to build on last season and push further up the table.

With pre-season preparations underway and a renewed sense of optimism around Church Lane, Pauley’s commitment signals the club’s intent to challenge strongly in the 2025/26 campaign.
