We are delighted to announce the signing of right-back Jake Pitty for the upcoming 2019/20 season.
Jake joined the Millers back in October 2018 from Canvey Island having spent the previous five seasons with the Gulls, playing 146 times and winning Supporters Player of the Season in 2015/16 and the Managers Player of the Season in the 2017/18 season.
He originally joined Canvey Island playing as a central midfielder but he was moved to play at right back where he shone for the Gulls, helping them to the play-off final last season, and just missing out on promotion against Haringey Borough.
Prior to Pitty joining Canvey Island he featured for Chelmsford City, and now the 22-year-old joins the Millers, and brings with him experience playing in the Bostik Premier with Canvey for three seasons and then helped to reach the 2017/18 Bostik North play-offs.
Jake Pitty on signing on for the Millers: “I’m really looking forward to getting back playing. It was a frustrating end to the season for me missing it through injury but now I can’t wait to get started.”
Danny Dafter on re-signing Pitty: “I didn’t get to see Pitty play in my short time at the club due to his injury. He’s a boy who has played a lot of games at senior level and I’m looking forward to seeing an injury free Jake helping us to get clean sheets.”
