Harrogate Town captain Josh Falkingham signs two-year contract extension
Josh Falkingham, who has signed a two year contract extension at Harrogate Town.
Harrogate Town captain Josh Falkingham has signed a two-year contract extension.
The 32-year-old, who joined from Darlington in 2017, has made more than 150 appearances for the club in three separate divisions.
The deal will see Falkingham lead Town until the end of the 2024/25 season.
Falkingham said:
“I am absolutely delighted to have extended my stay for another two years. I really want to play my part in pushing the club forward in that time and together hopefully we can keep improving and pushing up the table.
"For me, it has always been about working hard and constantly trying to improve. I always push myself to give everything for this club and I will continue to do that."
The 32-year-old has led Town to two promotions in his five-year stint.
Famously, Falkingham captained the side to a 3-1 play-off final victory over Notts County in 2020 which saw the club promoted to the English Football League for the first time in its history.
Town manager Simon Weaver said:
“Josh has played an instrumental part in the climb the club has been on in recent years. We are delighted that he has signed this extension.
“Players, teammates, staff and supporters can all see how much this club means to him and that passion and determination is a great attribute to have in any dressing room.”
