TORQUAY UNITED‘S board of directors have confirmed their commitment to the struggling club, after seeing manager Paul Cox and director of football Dean Edwards both quit.
Cox stepped down on Friday, 24 hours before the Gulls were thrashed 7-3 at home by Bromley in the Vanarama National League.
Edwards, who led a consortium who took over the club in the summer, walked away from his role on Monday. Two weeks ago he said the Gulls could go out of business.
The Plainmoor outfit, currently 18th in the league, are now searching for a new boss with caretaker manager John Ramshaw taking charge of tonight’s (Tuesday) game against Boreham Wood.
“The directors of Torquay United FC would like to assure the loyal Yellow Army that their commitment to the cause has not waned and the events of the last few weeks has only reinforced their spirit and galvanised them as a board,” a statement said.
“The board would like to reassure the supporters that they are still dedicated and are working towards ensuring that Torquay United FC is sustainable for future generations to enjoy.
“Football is a unique business and we are learning as we move forward. Together, the coard, staff and loyal supporters need to unite in order to achieve the best for Torquay United FC.”
