Terry Spillane has resigned as manager of Redbridge

The Motormen enjoyed a memorable season at the Oakside Stadium, with Spillane leading them to a sixth place finish in Ryman Division One North as well as the second round of the FA Cup where they fell to defeat against League Two side Crawley Town.

The news follows swiftly in the wake of chairman Dan Holloway’s departure after he resigned from his position last week.

In a statement on the club’s official website, Spillane said: “After leading the club to arguably having the best season in the club's history I've made the difficult decision to resign from my post as 1st team manager at Redbridge FC with immediate effect.

“I have never walked away from a challenge in my life but felt the season ahead would be difficult to say the least after this week's developments at the club.

“I wish the club, it's committee and supporters all the best for the future and would like to go on record and say that last season is without doubt the most enjoyable one I've ever had in my football career and thoroughly enjoyed every second of my time spent at this great club.”
