A
statement from the clubs on https://www.whitchurchalport.com
reads: "The decision was one not taken lightly by the club`s committee,
especially given the premature end to the last campaign and uncertainty as to
when football may resume. However, with the club now using the time to
re-structure including appointing a new chairman it was decided to review the
first team’s management.
“Following
a difficult few months with just two wins in eighteen games, the club felt a
change in manager would be the best option to try push the club forward both on
and off the field. Matt has faced a difficult period in charge with lots of
change and, despite his excellent management record previous to Yockings Park,
the results haven’t worked out as to what this club and fans demand.
“As
a club, we would like to acknowledge Matt`s efforts and dedication since joining,
a likeable character who we wish every success in the future.
“In
the meantime, Steve May, Lea Edge and Kevin Street will oversee any football
matters whilst the club meet to discuss advertising and appointing a new first team
manager in time for whenever football returns!" |
