Morgan Feeney has spoken of his "honour" at captaining Carlisle United as he leaves Brunton Park.

The defender has signed for United's League One rivals Shrewsbury Town after turning down the chance to stay at Carlisle.

Feeney has departed the Blues after two-and-a-half years with the club.

He was skipper for most of their 2022/23 League Two promotion campaign.

And in a social media post after his move to the Shrews was confirmed, Feeney wrote: "Blues, I’d like to thank the staff, players and especially you the fans.

"It has been my personal honour to captain this football club.

"So glad to end it on such a high and proud of what we achieved together. All the best to everyone at Carlisle United for the future."

Feeney will be back at Brunton Park with his new club on September 2 in the new League One season.

In an interview with his new club he said Shrewsbury's "ambitions" matched his.
