Saxton joins York City Knights

Tommy Saxton has joined York City Knights on a month’s loan from Halifax RLFC.

With chances in Halifax’s first team becoming limited, Richard Marshall has allowed Saxton to join on a month’s loan.

Saxton has made just five appearances for Halifax this year, and the winger has joined the Knights to try and help them push higher than 6th in Kingstone Press League 1.

“We have several players out of the first team at the minute and the opportunity for Tommy to get some game time at York is attractive,” Marshall told the club’s official website.

“Tommy is an experienced player and at his stage needs to be playing on a more consistent basis. We wish Tommy all the best with his stint at York.”
