Pritchett has cited a number of reasons that have influenced his decision, in a move that has come as a surprise, and draws a close on a largely successful period for the club who had been facing relegation from Step 5 at the time of his appointment in 2016.
Pritchett
told http://www.tuffleyroversfc.co.uk:
“It has been a really difficult decision for me, but I’ve ultimately come to
the decision that I am going to step down from my role as manager.
“I’ve
got a really important year coming up with work and some of the challenges
presented by Covid-19 mean I need to put even more into that. I want to
continue playing, having enjoyed my season in 2019/20, so I felt like it was
the right time to make this decision.”
In
confirming Pritchett’s departure, Rovers’ chairman Dan Boon positively acknowledged
his time at the club: “I would like to thank Pritch for his time as manager of
the first team, which I am extremely grateful for. He has been someone I have
had a great relationship with and I’m sad to see him leave the role.”
The
new Rovers chairman then confirmed that assistant-manager Richard Cox would
temporarily take up the reins until the club are in a position to make a
decision around a more permanent appointment. |
