Altrincham have landed a coup with the addition of midfielder James Hardy from .

The former , Walsall and AFC playmaker- dubbed one of the best players outside of the National League – was given permission to leave Telford after the Bucks' season was declared null and void.

Altrincham manager Phil Parkinson told the club's website: “James is a player I tried to bring in last summer, and I am delighted to finally get him on board.

“He is showing a tremendous appetite for the game. He has cancelled his contract and is taking a huge pay cut to continue playing , which, apart from his undoubted ability, I found really appealing.”
