FC Halifax Town: Defender McManus leaves the club
McManus wrote himself into Halifax folklore by scoring a stunning winner in their 2016 FA Trophy final win against Grimsby at Wembley.
He joined the club from FC United in 2011, and worked his way back from a cruciate ligament injury sustained in that Wembley win to help Town get promoted back into the National League and then stay there this season.
