Eagles On Search For New Boss
17th September, 2008
Mick Watson and Andy Patterson have left Eccleshill United after the Eagles dropped to the bottom of the KoolSport NCEL Premier Division.
Following last night's 6-0 defeat at home to Arnold Town, the club committee met with the management duo where, after a brief discussion, all parties agreed that they and the club would part company by mutual consent.
The result saw Eccleshill United still without a point, having conceded 38 goals in only eight matches played.
The club would like to place on record their thanks to both Mick and Andy for all their hard work on behalf of the club since taking over before the start of the 2007/08 season.
Club Secretary Paul Jarvis said: "Mick and Andy both worked extremely hard under difficult circumstances for Eccleshill United and we thank them for that.
"Unfortunately, the results this season have not been acceptable. Mick and Andy both knew that.
"We wish both Mick and Andy all the very best in their future endeavours."
Club Captain Stuart Waite will be in caretaker charge for the visit of Bedlington Terriers on Saturday in the FA Carlsberg Vase whilst the club hopes to have a new manager in charge by the end of the month.
Anyone wishing to apply for the post of manager should forward a current CV in the first instance to Paul Jarvis (Football Secretary), Eccleshill United Football Club, 67 Wrose Road, Swain House, Bradford. BD2 1LN or by email to bigjarvo@live.co.uk.
