Faversham are looking for a new manager following the resignation of Ray Turner.

Turner stepped down following the Lilywhites' FA Trophy exit at the hands of local rivals Sittingbourne.

He leaves with Faversham 12th in Bostik South East after a four-match winless streak.

Turner stepped up from assistant manager to replace Justin Luchford in April 2011.

He led them to the play-offs three times and reached two finals, losing to Maidstone in 2012-13 and Worthing in 2015-16.

However, last season was a struggle and Faversham finished 19th - their lowest position since promotion from the Kent Keague in 2010.

Town conceded 12 goals in Turner's last two away matches, losing 5-4 at Hythe before being thrashed 7-2 by Cray Wanderers.

Turner said: "The time was right to step aside as first team manager of this wonderful football club.

"I take with me some fantastic memories but my time had to come to an end and it's now time for someone else to take this club forward.

"It's very difficult to thank everyone who has helped and supported me but I would first like to thank all the players I have had the privilege to work with.

"I still believe the current squad can compete again for the play-offs this season and I wish them all the best.

"I would like to thank all the supporters that have been with me through good and bad and all the board members who have supported me, especially Ray Leader who I loved working for and Paul Bennett the current chairman who understood my reasons for leaving and without doubt will take this club forward.

"I would like to leave my final thank you to my brilliant management team, and in particular Clive Walker.

"He has stayed unequivocally loyal at all stages and I can't thank him enough."

Walker will take charge of Faversham's game at home to Haywards Heath on Saturday.
