Brightlingsea Regent announce the shock return of Tom Richardson!

Brightlingsea Regent have pulled off a coup, defying the odds to secure the return of promotion hero Tom Richardson!

Tom requires no introduction to anyone here at North Road, having netted 34 times in 59 appearances, playing a huge role in the clubs Isthmian League North title in 2017.

Richardson departed Regent in 2018, for an undisclosed fee, when he joined National League East Thurrock United, where he netted 4 times in 8 matches, including a hat-trick against Aldershot Town in the FA Trophy.

He was reunited with James Webster at Aveley and had spells at Bishop’s Stortford and Braintree Town, before returning to Brentwood Town last campaign where he won the divisions golden boot, netting 29 times and firing the blues into the playoffs.

Manager Brett Munyard has expressed his delight at securing his target “When Tom left Brentwood, we like everyone else declared firm interest!”

“He has been a long term target for a while now and we thought originally it may be the summer when we would could make a move but the fact we have got this done now is a huge boost for the team and the club!”

“He’s goal scoring record is known to everyone, but it’s not just goals he brings, He is a great guy and a big character with lots of experience, who will be a big asset to the changing room!”

“Of course I know he has a great past with this club and regarded very highly with our fans!”

“I think over the past 6 to 8 weeks, we have signed some really good players and the squad is now complete and ready to battle for survival!”

We can’t wait to see Tom back at North Road!

Welcome back Tommy!
