just got a phone call

The above two are not in the same league. Its a disgrace after all he went through. I tooo was at homelands for that match. The man stayed and stayed. We will never have a better manager.

[Gate Watcher]

I really never considered that we would lose CK. I'm just stunned that the board have felt this is the way forward.

[geoff pay]

ditto

[Gate Watcher]

Or maybe there's a rat that muddied the waters. I know CK would have been the prime candidate for the Dover job in the summer.

[Margate Don]

Thanks to Chris and Kevin for everything they have done for MFC. Certainly when you consider the situation they have had to put up with - through no fault of their own - for the past three seasons it is extremely sad that it should come to this. Like others I'm feeling somewhat numb. Let's just hope for the very best for MFC in the run in till the end of the season.

[MFC Forever]

Would also like to thank Chris and Kevin for their hard work for MFC. Could not believe the news when I read it, not sure if it is right or not, they have brought so many good players to us and next season was their aim to great success. Thanks for some great memories over the past ten years, the Fulham FA Cup game that started my following, the cold draw that night we secured Conference status and the two brilliant seasons that followed it.

Thanks again for your tireless commitment to the club and all the best in the future.

Up the Gate!

[Northants Blue]

I've just got into work and read the message on the website and I don't know what to say - I'm amazed at the timing!! I know results haven't been going our way recently but with the amount of players CK has brought in we weren't going to gel straight away and I always thought (as did CK at the beginning of the season I believe) that this year would be a year of consolidation and next season we would be on the up.

 

I would like to wish CK and KR all the best for the future. I will be forever grateful for the last few seasons - I never thought we would ever reach the conference.

 

GOOD LUCK CK - I'M GUTTED!!!

 

TO THE BOARD - ??????????

[Northants Blue]

Sorry forgot to mention one word - LOYALTY. With all the crap that CK has had to put up with over the last few years, surely they should have kept him on at least until the beginning of next season, see what results were like and then done it if things were going wrong.

 

AM GETTING ANNOYED NOW!!!!

 

ONCE AGAIN, TO THE BOARD ?????????????????

[Edinburgh Exile]

I am so disappointed with the club for stabbing CK in the back after all he has done for us.

 

Everything that I want to say has already been said above - loyalty, commitment, proven track record, screwed by the stadium development, broken promises, the list is endless.

 

After all that he has done for us he should have been allowed to leave on his own terms and not under a cloud not of his own making.

 

Chris, and Kevin, thanks for the memories and good luck in your new posts - you won't be out of a job for long.

[blueblood]

Well said June,Upwards and onwards into the future.

[I am Spartacus]

Strange that conversation in the clubhouse before the game BB. Had the decision already been made and certain people forwarned.

[BlueGate Alan]

Agree with June & Blueblood, am sorry to hear Chris has gone as a great bloke but these things do happen in football as we all well know, at the end of the day Margate FC is who counts & only time will tell if correct decision was made.

[I am Spartacus]

Ditto. Remember in life the only certainity is death and in football management it's the sack (or suspension, gardening leave or whatever it is called).

 

Onwards and upwards see you all at Hampton on Saturday.

[ooh!!bodyform]

gutted although not surprised although i think the board could have waited till the end of the season, for a new manager to come in and gel with the players push them harder is going to be difficult i feel we are in for a rough end to the season.

 

HOLD ON TIGHTS BOYS AND GIRLS!!!

 

ck was and always will be a legend and a gentleman

[Coffin Ender]

I will be very surprised if a new boss is put in place before the summer. It'll be JK as player-manager for the last five games.

[geoff pay]

yep no doubt

[Cookie]

Got that wrong then! Robin Trott it is & good luck to him.I am sure he will see us through!
