The stopper also took up a four year football and business scholarship offer at Monroe College, New York. Ironically at Newport former Lions goalkeeper turned defender Matt Taylor (ex-Bradford City) had been covering the role of back up ‘keeper before Joe joined The Exiles.

Of his move to Nethermoor the Barnsley-based Green said:”I am looking forward to joining up with some great lads and to pushing Jonny (Maxted) for the No 1 spot. I am looking forward to us pushing each other to be better players. I can’t wait to get going and I will be going all out to show what I can do.”
