Barnet FC are thrilled to announce the signing of defender Romoney Crichlow.
The 26-year-old, once described as a “Rolls Royce of a Centre-Back”, started his career at Enfield Borough, before making the move up North to Huddersfield Town.
Over the next 6 years he spent time on loan at the likes of Hartlepool, Swindon, Plymouth and Bradford City – for whom he played 32 games.
He then joined Peterborough United, playing a part in their EFL Trophy win at Wembley before going out on loan to Dagenham & Redbridge in 2024.
The defender then returned to the Bantams at the back end of last season – playing a significant role in the club’s promotion to League One – and has already been put through his paces on the first day of pre-season.
On what most attracted him to sign for the Bees, Romoney said:
“The style of play, in recent times it’s been very successful – serial winners at this point.”
“When I had the presentation with the gaffer and the rest of the staff, the way they envisioned me playing in that system, it was a no brainer really.”
Manager Dean Brennan said:
“We’ve been monitoring Rom for a few years now, since his Peterborough days.”
“Last season he helped Bradford gain promotion, and he gives us really good balance on that left hand side (left Centre-Half)”
“We know he’s a good leader, he’s shown that at previous clubs, and he’s helping us upgrade – what’s important for him is he plays 50 games for Barnet Football Club this season.”
The deal is subject to the usual FA and League clearances.
