WHAT NEXT?
Following Marriott's move to Reading, Wrexham boss Parkinson predicted big things for the ex-Fleetwood Town forward.
He added: "I’d like to wish Jack all the best at his new club; he’s a great lad. He started the season off so well last year, but had such an unfortunate injury. I’m sure he’s going to be a great signing for Reading."
