Former Carlisle United man McKirdy released by League Two club
Former Carlisle United forward Harry McKirdy has been released by Bromley after just three months with the club. He is one of four players let go by the Ravens after the League Two season. McKirdy is joined at the exit door at Hayes Lane by his former United team-mate Olufela Olomola as well as Louis Dennis and Myles Weston. The decisions follow Bromley's 11th-placed finish in their debut season in the EFL. McKirdy, who was on United's books in 2019/20, joined Andy Woodman's side in February after a spell with Hibernian. The 28-year-old made nine appearances and scored two goals, the second of those strikes coming in Bromley's 2-1 defeat at Brunton Park on March 22. That game saw McKirdy celebrate his goal by taunting home fans - who responded with chants and abuse in the former Swindon Town man's direction. United boss Mark Hughes later suggested McKirdy's antics had hindered his team on the day. McKirdy only managed two starts with the rest of his appearances coming from the substitutes' bench. His time at United saw 11 goals in 38 appearances. Olufela Olomola, left (Image: PA) For striker Olomola his release from the London club marks the end of a two-year stay at Bromley. The man who was on loan at Carlisle in 2019/20 made 54 appearances and scored 13 goals for the Ravens. Olomola, 27, scored six goals in 33 outings during his spell with the Blues. A third ex-Carlisle player, captain and central defender Byron Webster, remains at Bromley. The 38-year-old's contract is also up this summer but the Ravens have not yet confirmed their full retained and released list.
