Martin is well-liked and highly respected around the non-League scene. He knows non-League football inside out and has a great eye for a player.
After
fifteen years loyal service at the helm of Romford, Martin was unceremoniously
sacked when new owners took control of the club last year.
Joining
Martin as his assistant is former Rocks player Mark Lord.
Lord
was with East Thurrock in the early 1990s and had been working as Martin's
assistant at Romford in recent years.
And
Rocks supporters will be pleased to hear that Danny Cossington, who was so
impressive for the club last season, will be remaining with the Rocks as
player-coach.
Martin
told https://www.eastthurrockunited.co.uk:
"First and foremost, there are no words to describe what John Coventry has
achieved at this club, he is a close friend of mine and It’s an honour to be
succeeding such a manager.
"I
would like to thank the new club officials for giving me the opportunity to
manage this fantastic club.
"I'm
really looking forward to working with the new committee, the youth teams and
managers, meeting the loyal fan base and meeting any challenges which may lie
ahead.
"Hopefully
we can all meet up as soon as possible, once the current pandemic has passed.
In the meantime, stay safe everyone”. |
