Hartlepools News - themaclad - 15-05-2023
Goalkeeper Ben Killip will leave Hartlepool United when his current deal expires, after relegation to the National League this campaign.
The 27-year-old made 150 appearances for Pools, and was part of the side promoted back to the EFL in 2020-21.
Killip follows defender Jamie Sterry in deciding to move on, after the 27-year-old rejected the offer of a new deal.
Sterry made 102 appearances for Pools after moving from Newcastle United in the summer of 2020.
Pools are still in negotiations with Connor Jennings, Nicky Featherstone and Pat Boyes, while Leon Clarke, Peter Hartley, Mohammed Niang, Wes McDonald and Brendan Kiernan have been released.

Chairman Raj Singh has said he will "continue to back" Hartlepool United until the sale of the club is complete.
Singh put Pools up for sale in April before their relegation to the National League was confirmed.
He said expressions of interest were being collected, with potential bidders being asked to provide proof of funds.
"I've made it clear that a buyer must be somebody who has the right interests and financial backing to securely take the club forward longer term," he said.
"As yet we have not reached the stage where certified proof of funds have been provided to a level that the club needs to operate.
"I wanted to reassure the supporters, players and staff that I will continue to back the club as originally intended."
Hartlepool finished second from bottom of League Two after winning only nine games, and will return to the fifth tier of English football after two years in the English Football League.
Singh said that boss John Askey would be "fully backed financially" in the club's bid to mount a promotion challenge and "immediately bounce back".

OIiver Finney has left National League side Hartlepool United, after he was charged with raping a woman.
The 25-year-old midfielder faces one allegation, which is said to have happened in Cheshire in 2022.
Cheshire Police said he has been summonsed to appear at Cheshire Magistrates' Court on 13 November.
Finney, who had scored two goals in 20 games for Pools, joined from Crewe Alexandra in January of this year and was suspended in light of the charge.

Finney has one of those faces even a mother couldn't love.
If the case reaches trial his defence will have to ask for the judge and jury to be blindfold. He makes Myra Hindley look like an innocent bystander at a church fete.
If Francis Bacon were still alive he could get the job as court artist.
