Graham Allner P 911; 44.9% (1 Conference 1 FA trophy)
Phil Mullen P 27; 37%
Jan Mølby P151; 43.7% (1 Conference)
Ian Britton P75; 32%
Jan Mølby P53; 30%

Went round to watch my lad play for the Hartlebury village side (AKA Torton Turds), who should be playing CB for the village, none other than Mark Yates. In fairness, he's played for them on a number of occasions, never let's us down when we're short, has even run the line, and always involves himself with the normal p**s-taking banter. Always approachable, very decent bloke, we won 6-0 by the way ! Lol.

Does Mark still have a house on the Waresley Park?

"Does Mark still have a house on the Waresley Park?"



Well, his ex-wife has, but they're divorced now, but he visits his daughters and turns out for the village now and again. Not too sure where Mark himself lives, must be fairly local though.

Well, that lessens the possibility of any managerial swap around. I'm sure Eustace will sleep a bit better tonight.

Good luck to Mark.

If Mark had other commitments that would interfere with his coaching duties, why appoint him in the first place?

Interim appointment until the man they wanted was available?

probably took the job as a stop gap until the right managerial position presented itself.

Relatively speaking Mark has had a moderately successful managerial career and would be a serious consideration for a League 2 or Conference Premier side looking for a new coach.

Good appointment- I predict some activity between Solihull and us reference player movement during the coming close season!
