Newing And Deanus Depart Yet Again This Time For Enfield Town


Out with the old....in with the new......but for how long?


News reaches 'Banned Blog' today, that Ex Edgware Town managerial duo Steve Newing & Del Deanus, have walked out on Welwyn Garden City, repeating events at Leyton FC where the duo took over at the start of last season after the demise of Edgware Town.

The duo, who guided WGC to a 9th place finish with much of the same squad that played under them at Edgware Town and Leyton FC.

The pair have taken on the biggest challenge in their managerial careers, agreeing to be joint managers at Ryman 1 North club Enfield Town FC

Enfield Town, formed by supporters of the demised Enfield FC, under performed last season and will be hoping for better things under Newing & Deanus.

No doubt a number of players will move from WGC to join their 4th club in just over a year!

The big question is, how long will Newing & Deanus last in their new roles?



Enfield Town FC Club Statement
We have had a busy time over the last couple of weeks, but the process to identify a new management team has now been completed and we are delighted to have Steve Newing and Del Deanus on board. I know that you will all welcome them to the club and all supporters will get behind them for the coming season.

Steve and Del were the unanimous choice of the board and have good experience in the league and we believe they will bring a big improvement to the side. We have made no secret that we are looking for promotion and Steve and Del have ambitions that match those of the club. We believe that we have an exciting season ahead of us, and with your full support we hope to get that promotion we have been looking for.

There was a lot of interest in the manager's job, and some very strong candidates applied. We want to thank all those who expressed interest in the position and thank them and the supporters for their patience while a decision was being made. We believe we now have the right team in place. Steve and Del will be talking to the existing squad soon and assessing things with a view to strengthening where necessary.

We became aware that George Borg was available for a coaching role to fit in with his other current commitments. He was keen to help out in a coaching capacity and we know his experience will be a great boost to the club.

We will arrange a supporters evening down at Brimsdown to introduce the new management team to you all as soon as possible. Once a date has been set I will let you know.

For those of you looking to plan your pre season, we should be making some announcements on friendlies soon. Some games have already been announced and we have several currently being finalised. We will make an announcement when they are confirmed. A number of options were being considered, but they will now be agreed with the new managers.

Paul Millington
Chairman
