Was he coaching at Colne when Paul Weller was manager?

How come they needed a new manager? Weren't they doing quite well?

Ripley was “released of his duties” last Monday

They were 2nd in the league

I think so, it says they have promoted him from assistant manager, so been at Nelson this year.

Yeah he was his assistant. I'm a bit surprised Weller hasn't ended up at Nelson. Took half of Colne's team last summer.

Bit of back stabbing going on there. Ripley didn't deserve to be sacked

I liked Gerry. Good player for us at that time.

My son is coached by him, thinks he’s fantastic and he’s really brought him on.

Surely it should be, “released from his duties”? “Released of his duties” doesn’t make any sense.

Relieved of his duties would be right.

Harrison was a very good player for us, not apprecaited by Waddle.
