So what are his demands then?Buzz stop wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 6:57 pm The fact that Welling didn't retain Steve King tells a story. His squad before the budget cut was huge. At one point there must of been 23 players on the roster. Welling had 5 centre halves and probably 5 centre midfielders at one point. Goldberg was throwing some of his own dosh at it too. There is no doubt SK is a very good manager with a fantastic CV but most clubs at this level will struggle to match his demands for very long.

Re: New Manager Nomination Form
Well Jonty my old mate you needn't worry as my understanding is that TB will be in charge this weekend and i'm sure Steve won't be getting hot under the collar because the club has complete control of the budget and he doesn't reads the forum anyway.Jonty wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 4:20 pm With such a very important FA Cup game coming up I would prefer TB still be in charge for the next game at least. Not sure that this week is the best time for change.
Whoever comes in has to work within an agreed budget, I bet Steve Irving is getting a little hot under the collar reading this.
Re: New Manager Nomination Form
A large well paid squad and a large coaching team. Alright for a while but not sustainable for too long. Most Welling fans loved SK but knew it wasn't going to last long once his budget,squad and assistant team was reined in.Park Life wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 7:24 pmSo what are his demands then?Buzz stop wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 6:57 pm The fact that Welling didn't retain Steve King tells a story.

Re: New Manager Nomination Form
We have had a pretty decent sized squad and an improved budget for the last few seasons so don't think there is much difference. Other than a few clubs in this division i believe we have a competitive budget.Buzz stop wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 7:57 pmA large well paid squad and a large coaching team.

I tend to think there was an element of Mr. Goldberg wanting his toy back and to play manager again.

The reason given for making the cuts was that the hoped for increase in crowds and sponsorship didn't happen as hoped for, and the playing and backroom staff were reduced. I mentioned it to show that improved performances cannot guarantee increased income. Anyway that's all by the way, at least Mr. King's interview will be quick next week, come in Mr. King please sit down, what salary do you want for you and your staff? Ok that's been filled in on the contract so sign here please and welcome to Dartford FC.We will find out soon who gets the job, wonder if the cup tie needs a replay will affect the timing?
I see your point but I think there’s a massive difference in fan base potential between welling and Dartford.

Re: New Manager Nomination Form
Time has elapsed (maybe too much) . We will all find out the new incumbent next week. Full support to who ever I guess.

Thank you for the update.

Re: New Manager Nomination Form
So Steve King left Welling because of Budget cuts. Maybe he won't even entertain Dartford FC because of our Budget. To be honest I can't even think of a manager who will be at PP.
The only one I've thought of is Hakan Heyretting and he seems quite happy at Maidstone with Still.

Apparently when he applied for the Chelmsford job he was laughed out of the room because of his unrealistic budget demand.Ozymandias wrote: ↑Wed Oct 02, 2019 8:40 am So Steve King left Welling because of Budget cuts.
