PRESS RELEASE ...
EGHAM TOWN FOOTBALL CLUB LTD
STATEMENT SENT TO THE PAPER TUES 29TH MARCH 2011
To Mr Tim Street
Thank you for the right to reply and sending Mr Baker’s statement to us.Reply from Egham Town Football Club LtdWe chose not to speak to the Press on Saturday 26th March as we had not completed our future team to take the Club forward and had nothing to add.Naming and criticising people personally isn’t going to improve anything and know it is unfair and not correct to implicate other people who have had nothing to do with our decision.I can assure you it did not have any part of our decision of the 18th March and I did not have any conversation with anybody prior to 17th March when Mr Baker and Mr Butler were released from the Club. If you have to blame anybody, blame me as I took the vote and acted on it to release Mr Baker and Mr Butler.A misunderstanding in conversation with Mr Baker we made the mistake of thinking he did not want a certain player at the Club and was carrying out his wishes. At the end of the day these young men have a very short time to play our game, and I personally would never let them miss a minute of football anywhere.I wish all our Senior players have the time and passion to help our young players at the Club develop.Mr Baker in the press release you have sent to us said “What is really annoying is I turned down an offer to Manage at a higher level last Summer”. I would of liked Mr Baker to have made us aware of this “OFFER” I personally would have suggest to him to take advantage of this offer as you must always try to improve in football and not look back later and say “If Only”.This last paragraph is my own personal view point.But the real point is we were never “informed” of Mr Baker’s opportunity occurred until this press release.We would like to thank Mr Baker and Mr Butler for their 2 ½ years at the Club and wish them all the best.This is the last Club statement to be made of the release of Mr Baker and Mr Butler from Egham Town Football Club Ltd. But wish them all the best in their opportunities in football to come.The new Management structure at Egham Town FC Ltd is a 3 First Team Management Team appointed on 21st March 2011, Mr John Hamsher Ex Manager Merstham, Ex Assistant Manager Guildford and with a long playing career at Rushdon and Diamonds, Stevenage etc. The other 2 members are Mr Colin Bartholomew and Mr Lee Pearce.Youth Team Managers are Mr John Cane, Mr Wayne Noade and Mr Scott Wadge.
Junior Development
Mr Colin Bartholomew, Mr John Cane, Mr Wayne Noade and Mr Scott Wadge are developing a new Junior set-up to give local youngsters a way through to Senior football via our First Team. We believe there is an immense untapped source of exceptional young people and hope to offer them the opportunities to eventually play football at a Senior level this is Egham Town FC Ltd’s policy for our future development in football.
