John McGinty: Sad to see Bully leave.
John McGinty has issued a short statement following the breaking news that keeper Nikki Bull has refused to sign for the club on its reduced contract offer.

In the statement, the Chairman says, "Sadly I have to inform you of the departure of Nikki Bull after six years with the club.

I had a conversation with Nikki on Thursday evening regarding his decision whether to sign or not to sign, he chose not to sign thereby refusing this offer which is a very substantial increase on his previous contract.

It is a sad conclusion to what proved to be a long period of negotiations and I can only wish him well for the future.

As your Chairman I spent some considerable time on this and was bitterly disappointed not to have secured his service for a further two seasons.

Thank you Nikki for what you have done for the club, good luck to you and your family.

John J McGinty
Chairman"
