Jamie McClurg and Carl Withers have immediately been appointed as the club`s new joint management team

 

After nearly seven years at Binfield, Herridge has decided to step down from first team affairs and hand over the reins.

 

Herridge joined as the assistant to Mark Tallentire in May 2013 and in September 2014, took over the management, kicking-off with a 3-0 win away at Flackwell Heath and followed that up with a 1-0 win away from home at Highworth Town, where the side went down to nine-men.

 

Under his management, the club reached a number of finals and his duck was broken by beating the eventual FA Vase winners Thatcham Town, in the Floodlit Cup at Windsor.

 

Herridge always liked to give younger players a chance in the team and several of those players benefitted from extended runs in the team, gaining valuable experience. He was also never afraid to bring more experienced players into the club when required to strengthen the squad.

 

After 20 years of management, Herridge has decided to take a break from day-to-day management and re-charge his batteries, although Binfield are delighted that he intends to remain with the club in an ambassadorial role on home match days in the boardroom and will be available for scouting tasks for the new management team as required.

 

Whilst Binfield are saddened that Herridge has made this decision, it is something that the club have been preparing for from the start of the season and opens the door for Carl Withers and Jamie McClurg to take sole control of all team affairs.

 

The influence of both Withers and McClurg to the team in 2019/20, both on and off the pitch, has been highly visible from the beginning and critical to the success of the season. They have established a strong foundation for the forthcoming season.

 

The whole club is appreciative of everything that Roger Herridge has done and how he has gone about his business within the club. He has always been a credit to himself and the club.
