Caernarfon Town captain Darren Thomas has announced his departure from the club after 15 years. The 39-year-old midfielder has decided to leave The Oval in search of regular first-team football. Thomas has made over 400 appearances for the club across two spells and has been a key part of the Cofis' rise over the past decade.
What happened?
Thomas has found opportunities limited this term, featuring as an unused substitute before making a handful of short appearances off the bench in the Cymru Premier. He did, however, lead the side on a European night against Levadia Tallinn, captaining the Cofi in the second leg and starting from the off.
Why it matters for Caernarfon Town
Thomas' departure is a significant loss for the club, as he has been a leader on and off the pitch. His experience and knowledge will be missed, and it remains to be seen who will fill the void left by his departure.
What comes next?
Caernarfon Town will look to rebuild and move forward without Thomas. The club will need to find a new captain and leader to guide the team through the remainder of the season. League standing: 7th in Premier League, 6 pts, 2W-0D-1L from 3 games, recent form WLW.
