Isthmian League Division One North side Romford have announced the departure of owner Glenn Tamplin.

 

A club statement said: “When Glenn Tamplin became involved in Romford FC in December 2019, no one could have predicted the events that were to unfold across the world.

“This (Covid-19 health pandemic) has affected everyone, families, businesses and the wider football community.

“After several conversations, we have had with Glenn, we have decided to go our separate ways.

“Glenn is now working and living abroad and cannot devote the time required to push the club forward in the manner he wanted to.

“We have parted as friends and wished each other well in what comes next.

“The club is grateful for Glenn’s involvement at a time when the clubs survival was in question.

“We are pleased to announce that the management team of Derek Duncan and Christos Mead have agreed to stay with the club.

“Once we have further information on the return of football, we will update the supporters.”

The club were in tenth-place in the table (nine points from eight games) at the time of the abandonment of the 2020-21 season due to the coronavirus health pandemic.
