Crawley Town have signed former Albion midfielder Paul Armstrong from Scottish League side Airdrie.

The 24-year-old, who was also wanted by premier league rivals Eastbourne Borough, has signed a one-year deal.

He is the second signing for Reds in a week following Joff Vansittart's move from Farnborough.

Armstrong started his career with Albion in 1997 and scored two goals in 56 appearances before leaving for Airdrie in 2000 where he played 113 times.

Reds boss Francis Vines has failed to lure former Yeovil and Southend striker Barrington Belgrave to The Broadfield. He has joined Conference side Farnborough instead.
