Justin Gardner was pleased to see him back for the Millers and had this to say. "Alex first left because he was offered the sort of money he couldn't turn down."

"But he got to the point where he wasn't enjoying his football and he asked to return to a club like Aveley, where he can play with freedom and enjoy himself, and I'm pleased to be able to bring him back."

The Millers are also pleased to announce the signing of ex-Thurrock winger Luke Stanley.

Justin "Luke (Stanley), is a very hard working player who will give it his all in matches. He's been training with us for the last couple of weeks. He's a good addition to the squad."

Two outs for the Millers as Steve Carvell moves to local side Thurrock FC and also midfielder Charlie Gregory moves to Waltham Forest on loan to get some game time.
