A couple of non league snippets

[Reading Rebel]

Banbury, my tips for the title, march on with a 3-0 walloping of Hitchin.

 

Redditch won 3-1 at Farnborough with Spencer Weir-Daley coming off the bench to score. They also have ex rebel Nathan Fox in their ranks.

Bobby Wilkinson has resigned as manager of Hungerford,He's worked a minor miracle in his time there.

Seems he resigned at half-time.

 

Albeit 3 defeats on the trot it seems a rash decision after 5 games.

[Reading Rebel]

Farnborough had their keeper sent off today for a straight red, be interesting see if he's suspended for 1 or 3 matches.

[GlenSTFC]

As a club they're punching way about their weight, Bobby has done very well to get them to this level although I'm sure he's been well backed too. Wonder if he had another job lined up and why resign at half time?

[HEAVY TRUCKER]

fans comments can be quite cutting sometimes . no proof just a gut feeling.

After 5 games World War 3 has broken out on the Wealdstone forum.

 

Must be short odds on their management surviving.

Apparently he got some real dogs abuse after the game on Saturday so not surprised.

Bobby Wilkinson is hotly tipped to be the new manager. Possibly the reason he resigned the other day at half time.

[David Carpenter]

Poor start for Wealdstone but pity that Gordon Bartlett's fantastic service with them has finished in such acrimony.

[Reading Rebel]

I stand to be corrected but I think Wealdstone are partly funded by their supporters which I would imagine adds more pressure to the manager when they are up in arms. 

[Reading Rebel]

Seems the Hungerford Chairman and Vice Chairman have also resigned.

[Irishadrian]

RR The Chairman and Vice chair were only appointed weeks ago All the management team have now gone Hungerford have issued a statement saying they are financially secure and will appoint a caretaker management Ian Herring is one named The problem possibly for Hungerford will be if Wilkinson can take some of their best players to his new club

[Irishadrian]

I remember Bartlett as a Rebel but Im shocked to check and find his last appearance was 40 years ago!

[Radders]

Courtney baker-Richardson, who played against us for leamington in the play off semi final last year, is on the bench for Swansea in the carabao cup tonight having signed a 2 year deal with them last week.

Massive step up but good luck to him.

He's been appointed this evening.

So much for his 'I want to take a break'.

 

I think It's pretty obvious he was approached before last Saturday's game with Welling. 

[GlenSTFC]

Doesn't look good when the manager attends the match of his future employers whilst still employed at another club. If he said he wanted a break then it gets even worse!

It's worse for Gordon Bartlett, after 22 years of loyal service, knowing that it's pretty much a certainty that The Wealdstone hierarchy were conspiring behind his back.
