Mani and Clarke gone. As are Wilson, Threlkeld and Gibson. Towell off to Shamrock Rovers. All loanees back to their parent clubs. That’s the highlights. Most others under contract, but you would assume the club would want to offload a few more if they can. salfordcityfc.co.uk/retained-and-released-2020-21/ |

Yes a few more to leave you would think. No real surprises in the released list, Clarke maybe a little as he only joined last year. I can't see the likes of Andrade and Armstrong still being here in August either.There will be quite a few incoming too as we look light in all areas of the squad now.

Such a shame that Gibson missed the best part of the season and Wilson was constantly out through one thing or another as the inclusion of both on a regular basis last season would have gained so many extra points. Such is life. I'd like to go on record and thank Mani for all his efforts over the last four seasons. Had a great attitude, always played with a smile on his face and was a decent bloke to talk to. Scored some really crucial goals for us with non more so than the opener against AFC Fylde in the National League Play Off Final at Wembley (as well as making an assist for our third in an outstanding personal performance), the two goals against Stevenage in our first ever Football League game and the third against his former club Kidderminster Harriers in that never to be forgotten 4-4 draw when we trailed by four goals with just ten minutes remaining. We all know that he wasn't the best player that has turned out for the Ammies but I'd vouch he'd be up there in terms of dedication and enthusiasm. Best of luck for the future Mani and off course all the other lads who have contributed during their time at Moor Lane.

Would we like to see Robbie Gotts back at Salford for next season? I thought that he looked a better fit with each game. Is it possible to steal him off Leeds? I was just wondering.

He was excellent in his final game for us but I think he sometimes lacked a bit of physicality for L2. Probably moot anyway as I suspect he will end up at a higher level than we are currently at. We definitely need more midfielders whoever we go for with so many leaving us. |

Salford currently have 20 players on their retained list and have released 13 players including Mani, Richie Towell, George Boyd, Oscar Threlkeld, Tom Clarke, Darron Gibson and James Wilson !
I’m not surprised by any of those apart from Tom Clarke but there will be a number of retained players that might go to allow in more new signings !
We need a no. 2 goalkeeper, a right back, attacking midfielder, striker and a wide attacking midfielder !
This off season is when it’s interesting to see what players they might bring in and does anyone know when there likely to come up with season ticket details ?

I can see Andrade, Elliott and Armstrong all leaving before August as well. Neither Andrade or Elliott have really made the impact i think we were all hoping they would. Armstrong has found his place in the National league and is doing well there.
Andrade - 34 total appearances / 2 goals
Elliott - 29 total appearances / 2 goals
Armstrong - 33 total appearances / 4 goals

Don't think he'll be returning to Salford. |

Will be interesting to see what Developmental Squad guys get a good chance on the 1st team this year. Denny, Burgess and Golden all had a glimpse of the 1st team last year, more playing time coming this season? Touray or Loughlan to make their first real impacts this next year?

Bristol Rovers have confirmed the arrival of 4new signings...Paul Coutts, Sam Finley, Nick Anderton, Mark Hughes
Harrogate Town have signed Alex Pattison
Oscar Threlkeld to Bradford City (rumor)
Dan Jones to Port Vale (rumor again)

I'm delighted to see that Ibby Touray is staying with us. His future with the club had a question mark over it. But it now looks like his agent was just holding out for the best possible contract. A proven consistent worker. One of my favourite scousers.  |
