Swindon Town defender Jamie Sendles-White posts goodbye message to fans following release

Centre back Jamie Sendles-White has thanked Swindon supporters and coaching staff in an emotive message on Twitter, as his release from the club has been confirmed.

Sendles-White signed a deal until the end of the season in January 2016 and impressed in Swindon colours in the second half of the 2015-16 which earned him a one-year extension to his contract at the County Ground.

He was a regular in the first few games of the 2016-17 campaign, but had his season ended in September with an ACL injury, and has not played since.

No date has been given for Sendles-White's return, and Swindon have decided against offering the 23-year-old a new contract.

Posting on his Twitter page, the Northern Ireland Under-21 international said: "I would like to wish Swindon Town all the best for the future and I hope the club bounce back next season.

"I would like to say a massive thank you to Luke Williams, Ross Embleton and the players for everything they have done for me during my time at the club.

"I'm gutted it ended this way and I wish I could have been able to help the team out more this season.

"Finally, I'd also like to say a huge thank you to the fans who have been supportive throughout my time at the club and also throughout my time being injured.

"I have experienced some really dark times and you've helped me through them. Time to get fit."

The full Swindon Town retained list is expected this week, but no day has yet been confirmed.
