Hopkinson
took over from Ryan Cooper just before Christmas, with the club on just one
point and staring down the barrel of relegation.
Despite
it being his first managerial role, Hopkinson never panicked and on the last
day of the season managed to pull off the miracle that saw United stay up
against all the odds.
For
this, and for his tireless energy and unremitting work, the club have thanked
him, and he leaves looking to carry on playing, safe in the knowledge that he
has secured his own place in United folklore.
Assistant-manager
Matt Crabb will take temporary charge while the search for a replacement takes
place.
And
applications are invited by email to the committee via the secretary@eastbourneunitedafc.com.
Applications
will close at midnight on Wednesday, 18th September 2019
