Three
released by Currie
Manager Niall Currie has released midfielders Adam Arthurs and Gareth Corey and defender Ciaran Boyd. With the transfer window opening in the last few days, the manager has begun take stock of his squad and the trio are the first players to depart the club. Niall praised the efforts of all three players: "I'd like to thank the guys for all their efforts. Their attitudes throughout have been first class and I wish them all the best."
Gareth Corey is the longest server of the three, having signed for the club in November 2010. He came initially on loan from Lisburn Distillery, where he had been on the fringes of the first team, before making the move a permanent one. Originally signed as a striker, he was move commonly found on the right side of midfield. He played 30 games and scored five goals, all of those strikes coming last season. Adam Arthurs arrived at Ards in the summer, having tried out for former manager Justin McBride during pre-season. The former Kircubbin attacker failed to command a regular place in the side, playing in just eleven games and did not start a match under Niall Currie. Left-back Ciaran Boyd was the final signing before the summer window closed, having spent much of last season out injured with a broken leg. A former player with Cliftonville and Carrick Rangers, he played 12 games for the club this season. Earlier this week, Joe Finlay became the club's first January signing, making the move from Glenavon. The striker will take squad number 20. 5th January 2012
