Ards have been boosted by the news that Craig McMillen is to remain with the club for another season.

Craig McMillen

The popular winger was keen to extend his time at Ards into a third season and he signed up again in the last few days. Craig finished the season in excellent form, picking up the May player of the month award and a week ago he was named the Player of the Year by the Red & Blue supporters club.

Next season will also see the return of James Wilson, whom Tommy Kincaid used in a variety of roles during the last campaign. His end of season form was excellent too - he scored four goals in April to land himself a player of the month award.

Danny Mulholland and Gareth Walsh, who were both signed on loan from Glentoran and Crusaders respectively, have not been asked to re-sign and the players will now return to their clubs.
