CLUB STATEMENT: DARREN ANSLOW LEAVES PHOENIX

First-team manager departs after a year in charge.

Phoenix Sports Club confirms that it has today parted company with First-Team Manager Darren Anslow.

Anslow joined the club just under a year ago and has overseen a period of transition.

Chairman Tony Crowder said:

"On behalf of the board and everyone connected with Phoenix, I would like to thank Darren and his assistant, Sam Clarke-Keen, for their hard work and dedication over the past year.

It has not been an easy decision to make, but we feel it is the right time and in the club’s best interests to make a change.

Both Darren and Sam have always conducted themselves with great professionalism, and we wish them every success in the future."

Jake Goodman will take charge of the first team for the upcoming match against Sporting Bengal United.

We will provide a further update regarding the club’s new first-team management team as soon as possible.
