Rob Manley and Dean Byrne re-sign for Longford as three more commit to 2021 in the Midlands
Recently promoted Longford Town have confirmed the re-signing of attacking duo Rob Manley and Dean Byrne ahead of their top-flight return.
Manley of course scored the winner that saw Longford seal promotion to the Premier Division, while Byrne played an equally important role along their play-off journey after a recent long-term injury.
Meanwhile, Shane Elworthy, Sam Verdon and long-serving Karl Chambers have all also re-signed for the club.
Speaking with his club’s media team after re-signing, Manley said: “I'm delighted to sign back for my second year with the club and as a group we're all looking forward to the challenges next year will bring.”
And fellow re-signing Sam Verdon added: “I have a great relationship with Daire and staff and all the players.
“I’ve been here for a good few years now and every year we’ve tried to get promoted and now to finally do it has made the decision easy to sign again.
“It’s a great club and I can’t wait to play for Longford Town in the Premier Division.”
