    Harrogate Town have cut their squad ahead of the new season letting seven first-team players leave the club.

    Jake Lawlor, Brendan Kiernan, Ed Francis, Melvin Minter and Jay Williams have not been offered a new contract and have left the club.

    Calvin Miller and Scott Brown, who spent time out on loan at Notts County and Warrington respectively, will also be departing following the end of their contracts.

    38-year-old striker Jon Stead announced his retirement after the club's final game of the season against Cheltenham Town last weekend.

    The winger Kiernan was a popular member of the squad and he featured heavily in the 2019/20 campaign that saw the club promoted to League 2. However, he found opportunities more limited this season.

    The club paid tribute to him on Twitter as did former teammate Ryan Fallowfield who called him an "unbelievable character on and off the pitch".
