FC Halifax Town manager John McGrath says he is focusing on the rest of his squad as the futures of Will Harris and Jay Turner-Cooke remain unresolved.
What's happening with Harris and Turner-Cooke?
Neither Harris nor Turner-Cooke are training with the club at the moment, with Harris being unveiled as a Hartlepool player last weekend and being pictured training with them this week.
How is McGrath handling the situation?
McGrath is determined not to get distracted by the situation, stating that he has a squad of another 20 players to take care of, and that deals for three new signings are making good progress.
The team is currently 8th in National League with 70 points, 20W-10D-16L from 46 games, and a recent form of WLDDW.
What's next for FC Halifax Town?
McGrath says pre-season training has been really good so far, and that the team is always looking to make it better, with scouts always out there to find new talent, as seen with the recent signing of Tayt Trusty from Eastbourne for an undisclosed fee on a two-year deal with an option.
The recent win against Woking 0-1 on 2026-04-25 and the current 2-game winning run are a testament to the team's hard work and dedication.
How does McGrath see the team's future?
McGrath believes that the team has plenty of talent and that they are a really attractive prospect for any player, and that they will look to replace Harris and Turner-Cooke if necessary, with the goal of competing in the Football League.
As the team prepares for the new season, they are 38 points behind leaders York, but with the current squad and new signings, they are looking to make a strong comeback, with a goal difference of +3, having scored 69 goals and conceded 66 this season.
