Grays Athletic FC would like to express our thanks and gratitude to every player who has worn the Blues shirt over the last season. We can all agree that the final third of the season was one to remember and the dedication and professionalism the players showed for the badge was incredible. We came agonisingly close to the playoffs and every player should be proud of an incredible final run in the league.

We would like to thank Blues manager Mark Bentley who has done an incredible job since taking over the position in the new year. It is clear for all to see what Mark brings to the club and long may that continue.

We would like thank Glen Little for returning to the club and taking on the coaching role. Glen's passion and professionalism is second to none and we thank him for his efforts.

We would like to thank David Raven for his tireless work throughout the season, both as coach and scout for the club.

We would like to thank Jack O Hughes our physio, Jack has been an integral part of the coaching set up with the club and his knowledge and expertise with the players have been invaluable.

And finally to Sim, aka Rhino. Sim joined the management team at the start of the season and it has been a real pleasure having him be a part of the management set up.

We now move our attention to next season. Andy and Mark are already making plans for next season. Pre-season games are in motion and the players will be contacted within the next few weeks. The squad will next meet up in the first week of July for pre-season training.

We all look forward to the 2015/16 Ryman Premier league season
