Former Cobblers captain and promotion-winner leaves Brentford for Championship club

Cobblers’ former promotion-winning captain Charlie Goode has joined Blackpool on loan from Brentford for the rest of the season.

The centre-back skippered Keith Curle’s team when they won the 2020 League Two play-off final against Exeter City before he was sold for a club record fee to the Premier League Bees.

Goode has made four Premier League starts but he’s struggled with injury and illness over the last 18 months.

Goode said: "It's good to finally get this all done and I'm looking forward to the second half of the season.

"Like any move, you're always pleased to finally have it confirmed, particularly as this is something that has been spoken about for a few weeks. I can't wait to get out there and help the boys as best I can over the course of the next few months."
