Boss Gavin Cowan had already retained the majority of the side which reached the FA Trophy semi-finals and narrowly missed out on the National League North play-offs.

Now, left-wing back Morley will also be aiming to help the Bucks get into the top seven next campaign.

The 31-year-old set-piece specialist signed for Telford last summer and had a slow start due to niggling injuries, but went on to make 25 league appearances and scored three goals.

His dead-ball prowess proved to be a great asset during the second half of the term.

Morley's commitment to the club follows on from the Bucks securing their second new signing of the summer, midfielder Adam Walker.

He joined from league rivals Brackley Town. The other fresh face is winger Chris Lait, from Tamworth, while skipper Shane Sutton, midfielder Henry Cowans and striker Andre Brown are just a few who have decided to stay.
