New Macclesfield signing Simon Yeo believes he will flourish under Keith Alexander after again joining forces with the experienced manager.The 34-year-old forward joined the Silkmen after being released by Chester at the beginning of the summer.

He became reunited with Alexander for the fifth time following two spells at Lincoln and one at Peterborough earlier in his career, as well as his stint at Bury where Alexander was director of football.

Yeo said: "Keith and I have obviously worked together in the past and when he called I had no hesitation in discussing a possible move to the Moss Rose.

"Keith as ever was very positive about the plans for the future and it is hard not to get excited about the opportunity to play for the club.

"In addition, being a Stockport lad and having my home there, I know the area well and it won't mean having to move or travel any great length so from that point of view it was perfect."
