Carmarthen Town AFC announce new management team


On Monday, Carmarthen Town AFC announced that Neil Smothers will be joining the management and coaching team at Richmond Park.
Tomi Morgan was removed from his position as manager on Friday evening after the Welsh Cup tie versus Bridgend Town.
On behalf of the Executive Committee of the club, Chairman Gareth Jones stated that the disappointing results over the opening period, which has seen the Old Gold win only three of their 18 league games, led to the difficult decision to replace Morgan.
“We are deeply grateful to Tomi for his contribution to the club over the past 18 months. It was his experience and skills that kept us in the league last season when we faced a difficult period after the resignation of Deryn Brace. He was the unanimous choice of the Executive Committee at that time.
"Unfortunately, this season has not seen the club move forward on the field and it was decided that a fresh face needed to be brought in to improve performances.”
Former player Neil Smothers returns to the club in a player/coach role He has always been a strong character noted for his will to win. He will not be eligible to play until the January transfer window.
Smothers spent last season in Australia and returned to Wales in the summer. He signed for Bridgend Town in the Welsh League but was delighted to have been approached to return to Richmond Park.
Also returning to Richmond Park will be Kevin Morris to add his experience to the managerial team.
