We can confirm that academy graduate goalkeeper Dec Lambton has signed a loan deal with Pontefract Collieries.

The 20 year-old will remain with the Pitching In East Division side until 23rd December 2021.

Dec made his full senior debut in last month’s trip to Darlington and has already spent time out on loan with Brighouse Town this seasons as he looks to boost his experience of men’s football.

At Pontefract Dec will link up with former Lions Gavin Rothery, Scott Smith and Jack Lazenby who all played a part in Ponte’s Emirates FA Cup run to the fourth round qualifying where they were narrowly beaten by FC Halifax Town in a replay.

During his time with the club Lambton has also played for Albion Sports and Campion.

Good luck Dec!
