I see Ged Garner is returned to us by Morecambe. Tom White who some have mentioned coming back is retained for another year.

Yes I get that, I just lose track of who is loaned out sometimes.

Does that mean they'll have to join us on the six-subs-only naughty step next season ?

Hope George Ray gets back playing after a terrible injury. Seems he’s been released from Morecambe. Not sure he made a single appearance for them.

No because they’ll likely still have players at the club who reach the “homegrown”criteria

The criteria is basically a player under the age of 18 who has been with the club for a certain length of time.

Not necessarily the factor of having a full on academy setup

So basically if we signed a 16/17 year old - gave them a 3 year contract then at the end of that 3 year period - as long as we retained them they would be classed as home grown

We are also in conversation with David Worrall regarding a player/coach role at the football club.

On the publication of the club's retained list, Head Coach Andy Whing said: “I would like to place on record my thanks to all of the players for their contributions since I’ve been at the Football Club.

“It’s always the toughest part of the job to have to see players leave, especially when they’ve done so well for the Football Club, and we'd all like to wish them well in the future and for their respective careers.

“The hard work is well underway for us to continue what we’ve already done together to push this club forward. We’re really looking forward to seeing you back at Holker Street for a successful 25/26 season.”

Is Newby out of contract or just in talks over an extension?
