Dave Deacon Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 From the club's website:- Torpoint AFC Management Cardew resigns as Western League manager. It is with regret that, due to personal circumstances, Torpoint AFC announces it has accepted the resignation of Western League manager Dean Cardew. We would like to place on record our sincere thanks for his hard work as both 2nd team manager and later 1st team manager. Dean's tireless efforts alongside Gary Williams culminated in winning the SWPL and League Cup in the 2021/22 season, securing our promotion to the Western League, the highest level the Football Club has reached in its existence. Dean always understood the financial limitations of the Football Club but did everything he could to help us progress each season, both on and off the pitch. Along with Ryan Fice, he continued our reputation of being a well-run, proper Football Club. Director of Football, Luke Gibbons, stated, "Dean's commitment to the Football Club has been second to none over his tenure. His values and belief have matched our own whilst boosting the overall profile of the Club. The work he has committed off the pitch enabled the successes in 2022 and he's driven that into the Western League. Dean understands the nature of football and that nothing stands still. An announcement regarding his replacement will be made shortly. We wish Dean, his wife Kate, and their children all the best for the future.

Dave Deacon Posted June 14 Author Report Share Posted June 14 And a day later from the club:- Ryan Fice is announced as Torpoint AFC Western League Manager. Torpoint AFC is pleased to announce that Ryan Fice will take over as the Western League Manager following Dean Cardew's departure. Ryan, who joined the club during the 2022/23 season, has significantly influenced the team with his vibrant personality. He will be supported by Shaun Vincent as Assistant Manager, Martin Chrimes as Coach and John Dent as Goalkeeper Coach. Director of Football, Luke Gibbons, expressed his thoughts: "Dean's departure was a significant blow for the club, and we had to act quickly to secure Ryan, who was our top choice for the role. The team consisting of Ryan, Shaun, Martin, and John provides us with the stability and experience needed as we move forward in the Western League. Ryan's vision and dedication will ensure a smooth transition, and I am excited about the prospects for the 2024/25 season." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
