Barnet have signed former Forest Green Rovers winger Tom Knowles on a free transfer. The 27-year-old has spent the past two seasons in Gloucestershire, scoring 14 goals in 97 appearances.
What happened?
Barnet manager Dean Brennan expressed his admiration for Knowles, stating that he was one of their top targets this summer.
Knowles has previously had spells at Walsall and Yeovil Town, having begun his career at Cambridge United. He's a dynamic player, extremely professional and a fit lad.
Why it matters for Barnet
The signing of Knowles is a significant boost to Barnet's squad, particularly after their recent form of WWWWW. As of the end of the season, Barnet stood at 8th in England League Two, with 76 points from 46 games.
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| League standing | 8th in England League Two |
| Points | 76 |
| Recent form | WWWWW |
What comes next?
Brennan believes that Knowles can make a big impact and is capable of scoring more goals. The challenge for Knowles now is to live up to Brennan's expectations and help Barnet improve their standing. Their last result was a 2-1 win against Harrogate Town on 2026-05-02.
Barnet's current position and recent form suggest that they are on the right track, and the signing of Knowles could be a key factor in their future success.
