✍️ RETAINED: KIE HOULIHAN
Having worked with John Griffiths for the last three years, the gaffer is looking forward to going into the 2026/27 with Kie.
"Last season was a stop-start one for him due to work commitments but we're hoping to have him available much more going into the new campaign.
At just 23 years of age, Kie has learned so much about himself over the last few years and that's what pleases me most. He has matured both on and off the pitch into someone I'm really looking forward to working with again.
Kie is the type of player who can single-handedly win football matches. On his day, he's as good as anyone I've seen, but bringing that level of performance consistently is something both myself and the coaching staff will be aiming to help him achieve this season.
We're delighted to have him back at the club and can't wait to see what he can produce in the season ahead." - Griffo
