Last season was a really enjoyable one, both for myself personally and for the team, and I am hoping that more good times lie ahead for us.”

“Turner’s Cross was a fantastic place to play last season; the crowds were fantastic and the support we got was amazing, both home and away. There is a really good vibe around the club at the moment and we are all really looking forward to next season.”

City boss Colin Healy welcomed the news, saying: “Keats was a very important player for us last season, so we are very pleased to have him back again.
