Blues assistant boss Tommy Widdrington rated Sean highly at Salisbury City23-year-old right-back Sean Clohessey was Shrimpers boss Paul Sturrock's eighth and latest signing, (yesterday; but now over taken by keeper Glenn Morris today!), when he put pen to paper to a two-year pre-contract agreement.And having spent the last two seasons with Salisbury City in the Blue Square Premier with Tommy Widdrington as his manager, Sean was just about to start the season with Bath City when he decided to rejoin his former boss and take his place back in the Football League for the first time since he left Gillingham. Clohessy told www.echo-news.co.uk: "I'm really excited to have made the move and I jumped at the chance as soon as I knew it was possible.
