Langton
told https://www.lewesfc.com: “It’s been
an unusual time for us all in the last 12 months. I came in to help in the
short term and ended up staying on longer, especially to help the club through
the pandemic. Whilst we haven’t seen much action on the pitch, I know I leave
behind a clearer pathway for young players, which is important to this club. I
also know I’ve helped and supported everyone to the best of my ability during
these tough times.
"I
have always been touched by the kindness of every Lewes fan I have met along
the way, and your support and encouragement will never be forgotten, so thank
you.”
The
Board have placed on record its appreciation for the hard work Langton has put
into the role. The pandemic has presented significant challenges to the club
that he handled with integrity, diligence, and professionalism.
Chairman
Stuart Fuller added: “Hugo answered the call when we needed help in February 2020
and has worked diligently behind the scenes for the club in the last twelve
months, not just on First Team Management duties but helping in many other
aspects. I’ve known Hugo for well over a decade and know that his skills and
expertise in the game will be put to good use in the future”. |
