A lot of fans were gutted to see the former Eastbourne Borough and Millwall defender leave.

Sam Jordan posted: “Although he didn’t play in the run in @HarryRansom6 played a crucial part in the 6 game stretch at the end of Feb/start of March when we picked up 15 pts from 18 including scoring the winner at Accy. He also started the last 7 games of 22/23 to help keep us in the EFL. Go well H.”

Dan Palmer said: “A shame to see @HarryRansom6 go. Someone who always stepped up when needed and put in solid performances to go with that. Wish you every bit of success, Harry!”
