Brackley Town have announced that manager Kevin Wilkin has left the club.   Mr Wilkin had managed the Saints for 7 years.

The surprise move follows a difficult start to the current season, but after a highly successful spell during recent years with the club achieving successive play-off finishes and completing last season as runners-up.

The Saints won their away game against AFC Telford United by a goal to nil on Tuesday evening.

Club chairman Francis Oliver said: “We would like to place on record our sincere thanks to Kevin and his staff for their service and achievements at the club since joining in September 2015. During this time Kevin has been a credit both on the pitch and off the pitch, respected by players, staff, supporters and more widely in the game.

“This has been a very tough decision to make because of the success that Kevin has had at the club. We finished second in the division last season, have had successive play-off finishes, great cup runs and of course a FA Trophy win at Wembley. Kevin has also embodied the values of the club as somebody of integrity and determination.

“Kevin leaves with our sincerest of thanks for his commitment and dedication as manager and our very best wishes for the future. His tenure will be remembered as the most successful period in the club’s history.

The club says further announcements will be made in due course.
