COWDENBEATH manager Gary Bollan last night completed the signing of left-back Jason Talbot who has appeared as a trialist in Cowden's two pre-season friendlies in the last few days.

Jason (aged 32) will be fairly well known to many Blue Brazil fans from his time at Livingston and Dunfermline Athletic.

Jason hails from the Manchester area and in his career south of the Border played with Bolton Wanderers, Derby County, Mansfield Town and Port Vale.

He has spent the last decade in Scotland winning three League titles with Livvy and the Pars.

A highly experienced and tenacious defender, Jason is another very welcome addition to the Central Park roster and we are delighted to have him with us for the coming season.
