Following the conclusion of the 2023/24 season, Guildford City Football Club and manager Tristan Rees have mutually decided to part company. While the results did not match up to the initial promise that the young squad showed at the start of the season, the original intention of both the Club and of the manager was always to focus on the development of young, mostly local talent. In that respect, Tristan fulfilled the Club’s wishes, giving a host of young players valuable experience, many of whom were playing their first season in adult football.
With the season now concluded both Tristan and the Club agreed it would be an appropriate time to step aside and enjoy spending more time with his young family. However, we are pleased to say that he will remain with Guildford City FC in a different capacity.
We sincerely thank him for all the hard work that he and his backroom staff have put in this season; their attitude and determination to stick at it was exemplary, as shown on the final day of the season.
The Club will begin looking for a new manager immediately. Expressions of interest should be sent to the Club Secretary at barry.underwood1@outlook.com by 5pm on 10 May 2024.
