Moorlands Secretary Confirms Exit
6th May, 2008
Lincoln Moorlands Railway Club Secretary Graham Peck has confirmed that he is to step down and will be moving to another NCEL club.
He relinquished his post after Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Glapwell, a result that confirmed a bottom two place in the Premier Division for the Newark Road side.
In a statement, he said: "I told Moorlands several weeks ago of my intentions after the last game as I thought it only fair on the club that I saw it out to the end of the season.
"But, in all honesty, I have been going through the motions and not enjoying my football and, when I get to that stage, it's time to move on.
"I have been fighting a lone battle for too long and no club at this level can be a one man band.
"I was also tired of some of the attitudes of certain people aimed at me and no one was prepared to do anything about it.
"I believe club officials should be treated with respect and some people are incapable of that.
"Some things I have witnessed this season have bitterly disappointed me and should not happen in football.
"Having said all that, I have a new start at Gedling Town next season and I have a lot of time for Roly Ash, their Chairman, and I hope I can rekindle my enthusiasm.
"There are some good people at Moorlands and I have gained respect for Darren Dye, the Manager, who has had to battle away all season with his hands tied firmly behind his back.
"The players have remained loyal to him throughout which says a lot when many expected them to jump ship when the expenses stopped.
"I wish the Club all the best for the future."
