Jack Mackreth (born 13 April 1992) is an English footballer who currently plays as a winger for Warrington Town.

Club career

Tranmere Rovers

Mackreth was associated with Tranmere Rovers from the age of 13, and signed his first professional contract in June 2010.[2] In the two years prior, he had been a regular member of their reserve and youth teams and spent time on loan at Cammell Laird F.C.[3] However, he was unable to break through to the first team squad and was released[4] at the end of the 2010–2011 season, after making no league appearances despite being on the bench four times.

Barrow

Jack Mackreth signed for Barrow in August 2011,[5] and would go on to be an integral part of the side as they finished 13th in the Football. He was almost ever-present, making 36 starts and a further 8 appearances as a substitute.[6] Scoring 5 goals in the Conference, he was voted as Barrow's Player of the Year 2011–2012.

Macclesfield Town

Mackreth signed for Macclesfield Town in June 2012 after their relegation from League Two in the 2011–2012 season, and was Steve King's first signing as manager.[7] He made 40[8] appearances and scored 3 goals as Macclesfield finished 11th in the Football Conference and historically reached the 4th round of the FA Cup.[9]

Mackreth became one of the first players to re-sign[10] for Macclesfield for the 2013–2014 season under new manager John Askey. Again, he was an integral part of the team as they finished 15th in the Football Conference, making 43[11] league appearances. He scored 4 goals in all competitions including vital winning goals against Woking to give Macclesfield their first victory of the season, and against Brackley Town in the first round of the FA Cup.[12]

Grimsby Town

Grimsby Town were said to have been interested in signing Mackreth for a couple of years, and had made contact with him in the summer of 2013 before he chose to re-sign with Macclesfield.[13] Mackreth signed for Grimsby in June 2014,[14] and suggested that he regretted not signing for them sooner.[15] In the first few weeks of the season Mackreth was predominantly a substitute, but he fought his way into the starting line-up and mostly remained there for the rest of the 2014–2015 season. In the league he made 40 appearances.[16] Mackreth played every minute of Grimsby's unsuccessful play-off campaign, which ended in a 5–3 defeat on penalties to Bristol Rovers after a 1–1 draw[17] in the play-off final.

He renewed his contract in May 2015,[18] but was unable to retain his place in the starting team. Mackreth made 15 appearances for Grimsby, 10 of which were from the substitutes bench. After scoring against Woking on November 14 – his only goal of the season – he would never play for Grimsby again. It seemed likely in the following months that he would leave on loan[19] after becoming frustrated with his lack of game time, but this did not happen. After being relegated to the reserves,[20] Mackreth left by mutual consent on January 29, 2016.[21]

In total he made 55 league appearances for Grimsby, scoring 5 goals.

Return to Tranmere Rovers

Jack Mackreth was then signed by Tranmere Rovers on 30 January, returning four and a half years after he was released by the club. The move was described as a "no-brainer" [22] by manager Gary Brabin, and he made his debut against Torquay United that day as a 71st-minute substitute.[23] However, he would again struggle for game time and made just 8 appearances (including 7 as a substitute) from a possible 16 in the league campaign.[24]

Return to Macclesfield Town

After Tranmere chose not to extend his short-term contract, Mackreth re-signed for Macclesfield[25] in July 2016.

Bury

Mackreth signed for League One side Bury on 1 January 2017 for an undisclosed fee.[26] He re-joined Macclesfield on loan for the rest of the season in March 2017.[27]

He was loaned out to Macclesfield Town on 14 March 2017 for the rest of the season.[28] However, he was recalled on 18 April 2017.[29]

Wrexham

On 6 June 2017, Mackreth signed for Wrexham on a one-year deal.[30]

Mackreth was released by Wrexham in May 2018.[31]

Warrington Town

Following his release from Wrexham, Mackreth signed for Northern Premier League Premier Division side Warrington Town.[32]
