Wealdstone FC can confirm that First Team Manager Matt Taylor has left the club to take up the Head Coach role at Solihull Moors. This follows the activation of the release clause in Matt’s contract, after which permission was granted for Solihull Moors to speak with him. Following discussions, Matt has decided to accept their offer and will be stepping down from his role at Wealdstone with immediate effect.
Assistant Manager Paul Hughes will remain at the club and will take charge of the first team on an interim basis, supported by other members of the management team. The Board has already begun the process of recruiting a new First Team Manager to lead the club forward.
We would like to express our gratitude to Matt for his efforts and contributions during his time with the Stones. Despite facing an unprecedented spate of injuries, Matt demonstrated exceptional effort and professionalism. His leadership was instrumental in guiding the team to the Second Round of the FA Cup for the first time in over 40 years, a remarkable achievement that will long be remembered by everyone associated with the club.
Whilst we are disappointed to lose Matt, we place on record our heartfelt thanks for his hard work and dedication during his tenure. We wish him every success in his new role at Solihull Moors and in all his future endeavors.
The Wealdstone FC Board
