Bury sign Richard Hinds after Yeovil Town departure

League Two side Bury have signed centre-back Richard Hinds on a one-year contract after a successful trial.

The 32-year-old, who has made 349 senior appearances for six different clubs, was released by promoted Yeovil Town at the end of last season.

Hinds has featured regularly for the Shakers during pre-season, including in a 15-0 win against Cornish non-league outfit St Blazey on Tuesday.

Another triallist, Blackburn striker Anton Forrester, scored seven times.

The 19-year-old ex-Everton youngster may make a loan move to Gigg Lane ahead of the new season.
