The statement read: “Bagshot Football Club can confirm that First Team Manager Jamie Gale has resigned from his position with immediate effect.
“The club is extremely disappointed by this decision, particularly at such a crucial stage in pre-season; it leaves Bagshot FC in a very grave position regarding its immediate future.
“Everyone at the club feels this is a significant setback for everyone connected with Bagshot FC including our volunteers, supporters, and sponsors who continue to work tirelessly behind the scenes.
“Despite these challenging circumstances, the club remains committed to ensuring its survival and rebuilding for the future.
“We are now urgently seeking a new first-team manager, coach, and at least 10 players capable of competing in the ‘Surrey Premier County League’ (Step 7 level) and above, who share our ambition, commitment, and desire to represent Bagshot Football Club with pride.
“We have everything to offer off the pitch. Financial stability, an autumn/winter training venue, a new 3-year ground share at Frimley Green FC and lots of new kit on order.
“Anyone interested in becoming part of the club’s next chapter is encouraged to contact us as soon as possible. You can do so by emailing chairman@bagshotfc.co.uk or messaging on ‘X’
“It must be stated that without immediate interest from managers and players alike, the future of Bagshot Football Club is in serious jeopardy. Quite simply, if we cannot rebuild the squad and management team quickly, the club will have no option but to fold.
“We are calling on the wider footballing community to help support our club and together, we hope to secure the future of Bagshot Football Club and commence rebuilding immediately.
“With the league season due to start in a little over 2 weeks, this situation must be resolved as a matter of urgency.”
Here’s the social media reaction with the 11th tier club in a ‘very grave position regarding it’s immediate future’…
@Stu9891: I can’t stress enough the importance of this! If any manager or player can help out by getting involved, then please do get in touch. Off-pitch stuff is all taken care of.
@nonleaguesouths: If anyone is interested in getting involved with a club thats been left in the lurch (to put it mildly) please reach out to them!
@andysharratt: Someone must fancy this. The Wickens family have done a fantastic job over the years building and maintaining a club. It would be great if the non league football world stepped up and helped out.
