I don't think there will be one as such so it will be simply the case of the club announcing as wgen players re-sign or join. TBH they are pretty good at keeping us informed. I understand that Bully & Nabil have agreed to stay again. Quigs has joined Leamington - no loss there - while Jack Bowen is rumoured to be joining Biggleswade. It looks unlikely that Shaun Richards is returning but apart from that we'll all have to wait and see.

What I do know is that Andy has to work to a very tight budget which just shows up what I said a few weeks ago - that he has done an amazing job to get us to 2 consecutive play-offs when teams like Basford had almost 3 times the budget Andy had.

There was a time last season when Nabil was getting very frustrated and it would have been no surprise if he did not want to rejoin this season but things picked up for him, so lets hope he does stay and gets better suppo

I think last summer the Club made a statement to say that no formal information would be issued as to who had committed to play next season until the registration process with the League commences at the beginning of July.

If I was Macclesfield or Chesters boss, which I'm not, I'd be having a serious look at that Bradley Bauress lad at Witton 🔥

He's already moved to AFC barrow I think.

Great signing. He'll play in the football league within 3 years.

Some interesting names including Adam Confue, Leon Mettam, Spencer Weir-Daley, hmm :hmmm:

I agree with Claudio Hoban, but also no-one has mentioned a certain Matt Gearing, would still love to see him back at the club even if it probably won't ever happen.

I have to say I can't agree with the "bring back so and so" posts. Most, if not all, of those had the chance to stay and didn't want to. What value is there to getting them back in?

Young, hungry players who want to progress and would benefit from the coaching they'd receive should be your targets.

If you want a winger look no further than Ben Diamond at Chenecks.
