TNS captain Danny Redmond welcomes Brad Young's return

Captain Danny Redmond has welcomed Brad Young's return to The New Saints as the Cymru Premier leaders get ready to host Llandudno tomorrow (5.30pm).

Now available again after recovering from injury, striker Young marked his first start of his second spell with TNS by scoring the opening goal in Tuesday night's 5-0 victory over Flint Town United.

Skipper Redmond provided the assist when his inviting cross was confidently swept home by Young.

Asked what it's like having Young back at the club, the striker having returned from Caernarfon Town towards the end of May, Redmond said: "Yes, very good. Brad's a top lad. I always know where he's going to be.

"I've got plenty of assists with Brad in the past and it's nice to get another one for him."

TNS assistant head coach Chris Seargeant was also pleased with Young's contribution to the midweek victory.

Young, who enjoyed a prolific first spell at Park Hall, linked well with Jordan Williams while Josh Lock and Rhys Hughes also caused Flint problems as TNS made it eight league wins in a row.

On Young, Seargeant added: "Obviously, it wasn't nice for him, the European campaign, with the injury, so it's good to have him back.

"With three games in eight days, it was just a chance to have a little look at a few different combinations, get him up there with Jord together, which obviously caused them a lot of problems, especially with Locky and Rhys rolling in as well, so it was a very dangerous front four."

Llandudno head to Oswestry tomorrow in sixth place after enjoying an impressive return to the top-flight after being promoted at the end of last season as Cymru North champions.

They have won five and drawn one of their opening nine league games, with their most recent match ending in a 1-1 draw at home to Caernarfon Town on Tuesday night.
