Cam Mason is the Nash’s longest serving player and current number one. Since joining the club on a free transfer in the summer of 2014, the 24-year-old has gone on to amass over 150 appearances for Curzon. As a youth he played for Oldham Athletic, before joining Chesterfield in July 2013. Whilst he was at the Spireites, Mason spent a short-term loan with Stockport before joining the Nash the following summer. His reputation at this level is high, shown by his inclusion in the England C squad in March 2020 – however a chance of a debut for his country was scuppered by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Marcus Poscha joined Curzon in August 2020, following manager Steve Cunningham from Colne. Coming through the youth ranks at Bury and whist at the Shakers enjoyed loan spells at Ramsbottom and Stockport. After being released from Bury in the summer of 2016, the 23- year-old signed a short-term deal with Crewe where he featured heavily for their under 23s. Once again finding himself as a free transfer, Poscha found himself a new club at Colne. Following Cunningham’s switch to the Tameside, he was keen to brought Poscha with him citing his consistent performances as a base for Poscha to become a fans favourite.

Another new face at the Tameside for the coming season, Noah Stokes signed for the Nash following his release from League Two outfit Mansfield Town. The Australian defender started his football journey back in Australia for New South Wales side Bangalow Bluedogs. In May 2019, the 18-year-old signed a professional contract with Mansfield and played for their under 23s in their preseason tour of Portugal. However, in July 2019 Stokes suffered a serious knee injury that kept him side-lined for a significant period of last season. Joining Curzon on a free transfer this summer offers the youngster a chance to kick-start his career in England after a disappointing first season. 

Douglas Tharme joined Curzon ahead of the 2020/21 season following his release from Wrexham. The 20-year-old made his first team debut for the Welsh outfit in November 2017 and went on to register seven first team appearances in his 3 years at the club. Tharme had numerous loan spells during his time at the Racecourse Ground, including spells at AFC Telford, Gainsborough Trinity and most recently Radcliffe Boro. The highly commended young defender looks to be an astute bit of business by new boss Steve Cunningham ahead of the new season.

Matty Waters joined the Nash in August 2020 from National League North rivals Chester. The 22-year-old rejected a new contract from the Seals, instead opting for a new challenge here at the Tameside Stadium. Waters, who plays as a left-back, came through the academy at Chester signing his first professional deal in 2016. Since then he went on to make 67 appearances for Chester, contributing 6 goals in that time. Waters joins the club as another key piece in the rebuilding job for Steve Cunningham and should prove to be an astute piece of business for the Nash.

Current captain of the Nash, Rob Evans joined the club last summer from Warrington Town. Evans came through the ranks at Wrexham where he enjoyed a fruitful spell with the Welsh side. In his 5 years at the club Evans became Wrexham’s youngest ever captain and won the Young Player of the Year award in successive years. He eventually left Wales for Billericay Town in May 2017 where he made 50 appearances in his single season for the club. Following his release from Billericay, Evans signed for Warrington Town quickly becoming a key player for the Yellows. After rejecting a new contract at Warrington, the 25-year-old signed for the Nash in the summer of 2019 becoming a mainstay at the Tameside.

Connor Hughes is another player that has followed new boss Steve Cunningham from Colne to join Curzon this summer. The 25-year-old attacking midfielder was a mainstay for Cunningham during his time at Colne, returning 8 goals in his two seasons at the club. Before playing for the Reds, Hughes played for fellow Manchester side, Maine Road. His ability to contribute a healthy amount of goals and assists for the Nash means that he could quickly become a fan favourite at the Tameside.

Craig Mahon is yet another new face joining the Nash ahead of the 2020/21 season. The former Republic of Ireland youth international joins Curzon from Altrincham. Starting his career at Wigan, he spent 3 years with the Latics before moving to Salford City in 2009. In his single season with Salford, Mahon enjoyed a fruitful season, scoring eight times in 24 appearances. This led to his move to Vauxhall Motors in 2013 where he spent three successful years going on to make over 100 appearances for the club scoring seven goals. Mahon’s next move was to Chester – in his time with Chester he became their record appearance holder, with 215 appearances to his name in 6 years at the club. During his time at Chester he enjoyed loans with AFC Fylde and Ashton United before joining Altrincham making 11 appearances for the Robins, helping them to promotion for the National League North.

Two years at Leigh Genesis then led to Whitham moving on to Chorley in the summer of 2010. Whilst on the books of Chorley, Whitham went on to record over 300 appearances for the club, scoring on 69 occasions. In his time at the Magpies, Whitham enjoyed promotion to the National League in the 2018/19 season.

Dominic Knowles joins the Nash following his release from Boston United this summer. Starting his career at Burnley, a product of their youth academy, his first taste of first team football came with Gainsborough Trinity. His 10 goals in 18 games saw him earn a move to Harrogate Town where he saw his goal scoring exploits continue – adding 10 goals in 14 games. Once again, this caught the attention of other clubs and this time Burton Albion secured his signature in June 2013. During his two years at the Brewers, the 28-year-old striker scored four goals in 50 appearances as well as enjoying a loan spell at Kidderminster Harriers.
