CLUB STATEMENT: Lee Bullock
Whitby Town can confirm that they have accepted the resignation of joint-manager Lee Bullock from his footballing position at the club.
Both parties agreed following the Gainsborough Trinity defeat that a fresh voice and perspective was needed in the changing rooms going forwards.
Nathan Haslam will take sole charge of first-team proceedings on Saturday afternoon, when Marske United visit the Towbar Express Stadium at the Turnbull Ground in the Emirates FA Cup.
Bullock joined the club as a player in August 2013, signing under then-manager Darren Williams.
He was appointed as the club’s assistant manager in November 2015, following Chris Hardy’s appointment, before taking the managerial role alongside Nathan Haslam in September 2020.
In total, he made 132 appearances for the club, scoring three goals, his last playing appearance coming in the 1-0 defeat to Stafford Rangers last month.
The club would like to place on record their thanks to Bullock for his outstanding contribution on both the playing and management side over the last nine years.
It has been agreed that Bullock will stay on in his off-field role as Commercial Manager at the Towbar Express Stadium at the Turnbull Ground, but will not be involved in any football or training matters.
