A message from Joseph Mills

Joseph Mills has penned a letter to Forest Green Rovers supporters after joining Northampton Town this afternoon.

"I just wanted to say goodbye and thank you to all at Forest Green Rovers, the staff, players and of course, the fans.

"We have shared some amazing memories over the past two years. From the Cheltenham goal at The New Lawn, where my celebration showed my passion for the club to more recently, the last-minute equaliser against Swindon.

"I was privileged enough to become captain and also make 'Team of the Decade' which will last long in my memory.

"As fans, you not only welcomed me - but my whole family who enjoyed coming to games. My daughter still sings 'Sweet Caroline' most days, which she learned from watching the team walk out before every home game.

"The time has come for a new challenge for myself and one I am looking forward to. From myself and my family, thank you again and all the best for the future."
