Southern Counties East side Lordswood are considering their options after the departure of manager Richard Dimmock.

Dimmock, along with assistant manager Mike Jones and coach Jason Long have left the club. They leave a side sitting 13th in the SCEFL Premier Division table.

Survival was the aim when Dimmock and his team first took over in December 2021 and that was achieved.

Lordswood said: “The club [were] languishing at the foot of the table and at risk of relegation.

"Supporters will remember the drama of the last game of the season that saw us draw at home to Holmesdale thanks to a last minute penalty and with results going the right way in the Essex League we were saved from relegation via points per game.”

Lordswood have avoided the battle at the bottom this season and Dimmock leaves with a respectable record of 11 wins from 39.

A club statement said: “The club would like to place on record its thanks to Richard, Mike and Jason for all their hard work and efforts during their time in charge.

“We will now be considering our options regarding the appointment of a new manager.”
