Another departure

[Mr Happy]

I spoke with Roy Austen this morning and he informed me that he has resigned his from his position of coach and physio. To my mind, Roy was a major catalyst in our winning the ESL title two seasons ago. We had previosuly finished a dissapointing 4th and a lot of this was put down to the fitness of the players. When Roy came in as fitness coach he transformed the fitness of the players. He got an extra season out of Geordie Hall and generally, we looked much fitter and stronger.

 

Wherever you end up Roy. good luck and thanks for all your efforts at ETFC.

[lovely stuff]

What was the main reason behind Roys decision to quit,and has he got another club lined-up?

[Duke of York]

I'm disappointed to hear this news. I think I've got a good idea where he's going. Wherever it is, good luck Roy. You'll do a craking job I'm sure - see you in November?!

[andyetfc]

So we lose a physio and reserve team manager all in one go! Exit strategy in place?

[Gazza]

Make JC physio & get a new manager?

Just an idea of course!

[lovely stuff]

Come on Mr Happy.Roy must have given you a reason for his leaving.

[brutus]

Why would we want to change the manager Gazza , maybe theirs more to this then we know about any way physio s are easy to come by manager are not. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bootyshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bootyshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bootyshake.gif" alt="" />

Is that so? Do we have a replacement already then?
If not then maybe you can apply Brutus along with JC!

I liked Roy, he was a character much needed in a successful club, he also comes on this forum & replies to what questions he can, so expect him on here soon.

Good luck & best wishes Roy wherever you end up.

[Mr Happy]

Roy also had the respect of most of the players too.

[andyetfc]

Yet another loss. Thanks Roy and good luck.

 

PS. Can you leave the bucket and sponge at the club before you go?

 

Regards

Yes I liked Roy around one of the few to make me look skinney. Who can we tease with "who ate all the pies now". No Fruitbat, no Roy Rogers! Best wishes for the future Roy except when a team of yours is playing against Town.

[brutus]

Is he joining Ilford or is that just an assumption? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bootyshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bootyshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bootyshake.gif" alt="" />

[Gazza]

If he is, good luck to him at least he will know most of the team!

So are you applying for the vacancy Brutus? Maybe you could have found your dream role!

[Duke of York]

I don't think it will be Ilford for Roy. I think wherever it is that he's gone to he'll be responsible for more than the club physio side of things. He clearly has a superb understanding of the game and would make a great coach.

 

Maybe we'll hear Roy's side of the story soon?

Shame that he can't be a great coach with ETFC!

[Gazza]

Or even manager! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/whistling.gif" alt="" />

if physio's are that easy to come by how come ETFC have never had a proper physio? ok Colin Mardel was but was never there. Roy and even he would agree he is not a proper physio as you would call it.

So how come they have never had one if there that easy to find?

[Chopper]

Roy has done alot of good for ETFC over the past 3 years. He has had the players fitter then ever over the past 3 years and i know all the players that have been there would agree.

 

He has great knowledge of the game, more than what people know and (a bit to much knowledge for some people). He will be a great asset to wherever he goes. ETFC loss somebody else gane.

 

Not to mention the fact that the players would use his gym to train and go in for treatment, another loss to ETFC.

 

Good luck Roy wherever you end up.
