JAKE Wright has moved up to fourth place in The Press Player of the Year contest.
The ex-Harrogate striker was our man of the match during the 4-0 win against Darlington on New Year’s Day to earn three points towards the standings.
Wright was also rewarded with two points as The Press’ second-highest rated performer during last weekend’s 2-1 defeat at Blyth.
The other points against Darlington went to Jordan Burrow (two) and Hamza Bencherif (one), while the efforts of David Ferguson (three) and Macaulay Langstaff (one) were also recognised at Blyth.
