Everyone at Wimborne Town Football Club would like to thank Joe Roach for his fantastic work since he joined in January this year, as he steps down from his position as Academy Director.

General Manager Jimmy Glass said: “Joe has helped to improve the Wimborne Town Academy beyond recognition with both his experience and tireless work ethic.

“We hope he will continue to support both the Academy and the club in general in a Football Consultancy capacity. Joe’s knowledge is invaluable, both on and off the pitch.

“I know he is keen to take up a more hands-on coaching role and will be a great asset to whichever club gives him the opportunity.”
