Rovers first team boss Iain O'Connell has officially left the club to take charge of Ryman Premier side Margate FC. Iain, previously a player at Margate, couldn't say no to a contract offer to try and keep Margate in the Premier Division and is looking at the move to be a step in the right direction in a managerial sense. All of the Rovers Committee, management team, players and supporters wish Iain all the best of luck in his new position. We all know that Margate have a good manager and we're sure that the Margate results will be the first results we look for in the clubhouse.
Ryan Wilkinson and Cleve Taylor will continue their roles for the remaining games of this season and to keep Rovers on course for the play-offs. We also wish Ryan and Cleve the best of luck, we're right behind them.
