Jimmy Quinn avgår
Shrewsbury tränare avgick i morse
Shrewsbury Town manager, Jimmy Quinn, resigned this morning. It cannot be described as a total suprise given the position of the club at the bottom of League Two, but many are glad it was a resignation rather than a costly sacking.
Official press release.
The Directors of Shrewsbury Town Football Club and its Manager Jimmy Quinn have today announced Jimmy's decision to resign as manager for the club. Following a meeting with the Directors yesterday afternoon Jimmy Quinn indicated that "It was a difficult decision for me to make particularly after the success of last season but I had to put the interests of the club and its supporters first and felt that now was the right time to bring a fresh approach into the club."
Chairman Roland Wycherley said "It is with tremendous regret that we are parting company with Jimmy but unfortunately he was adamant that the time was right for a change.
Whilst the board were obviously concerned about the current league position we will be forever indebted to Jimmy for gaining us promotion back into the league last season, and wish him every success for the future."
Chic Bates has been invited by the Chairman to take charge of Saturday's game.
Both parties have agreed that no further statement will be made.
