Manager sacked for UNDERSPENDING their budget. Never seen that before! 😂
Ramsgate Football Club@RamsgateFC
Club Statement – Thank you Lee Martin Ramsgate FC will begin the process of appointing a new first team manager following the departure of Lee Martin. As we reflect on the season, it feels the right time to provide an update on the managerial position. When Lee Martin came into the club, we were in a difficult position and facing the real possibility of relegation. His remit was simple - to keep us in the league. Lee achieved that. Results improved quickly and, at one stage, we even found ourselves looking towards the play-off places, which is a credit to the work done during that period. However, a challenging recruitment period leading into March meant that, over the final six weeks of the season, the playing budget was significantly underspent. That period has been reflected in our recent run of results, with six defeats from our last seven games, including this week’s cup final. This decision reflects the direction we want to take as a club, not any one result. As a club, our culture has always been about looking forwards. It’s a mindset that has taken us from the brink of Step 5 to competing at Step 3, and now to a position where we are able to look towards Step 2. As planned, Seb Tidey will step down from his role on the committee at the end of the season. A significant part of Seb’s work with the club has been contributing to the development of a new strategic document, which sets out a very specific plan for the footballing side of the club. To give ourselves the best possible chance of success on the pitch, we believe it is important to explore the market and identify the right manager to deliver that plan. One thing that remains incredible is our supporters. Their backing is the reason we now find ourselves knocking on the door of promotion to Step 2, and we are unwavering in our determination to match their ambition and push this club forward. We would like to place on record our thanks to Lee for the job he has done. He came in at a difficult time, helped realign our objectives, and ensured the club moves forward from a stable position. Seb Tidey, Tom Hadler and Mark Buckingham will take charge of the remaining two games of the season. The club will now invite applications for the role of first team manager from candidates with experience of building teams capable of challenging for promotion to Step 2. Applications should be submitted to chairman@ramsgate-fc.co.uk

🚨 Everton remain STRONGLY INTERESTED in Al-Ahli striker Ivan Toney ahead of the summer window. 👀
The 30-year-old is OPEN to a Premier League return, but any deal will be expensive — with Al-Ahli reluctant to lose their top scorer and wages a potential obstacle. ⚠️
The Toffees are prioritising a new striker after ongoing issues in attack, with Toney managing 46 goal involvements from just 41 games in all competitions this term. 🎯

🚨 Newcastle’s recent poor form has put manager Eddie Howe’s future under SERIOUS PRESSURE. 👀
If the Saudi owners decide to make a change, a BIG-NAME replacement is being considered — with José Mourinho, Roberto Mancini and Andoni Iraola all on the shortlist to become their new head coach. ⚠️

Mark my words. We are a very different club. You’re not ready for what’s coming.

@AwayDaysFB If Storch still buys us he deserves everyone’s backing no matter how bad it gets

Well said, it's absolutely shameful that the situation at Wednesday has been allowed to happen, and yet they are going to be punished further. Here's hoping David Storch pulls through with his take over and gets the club back on its feet 👌🏻
