Scott Goodwin hastily got rid of his entire playing squad from the 2019/20 season when he took over at the Branch Bros Stadium.

The full WhatsApp message read: “Evening lads. We’ve been in the job now for just over 24 hours and the response we’ve had from players we know has been unbelievable.
“This has put me in a difficult position early on and we’ve decided as a club we’re going to have nobody back from the original squad this season.
“Now I know a lot weren’t coming back anyway and I’m not going to be a liked man and maybe wasn’t at all, but this is a decision we’ve taken and one we’re standing by.
“Wish you all the best in whatvever you do next.”

It was on Friday that Goodwin replaced Steve Wilson as manager with Kev Ward appointed as assistant manager. Goodwin was most recently assistant manager of non league side Ilkeston Town, but has managed at Peterborough Northern Star’s level (tier 9 of English football) in the past.
The club finished 14th in the United Counties Premier Division last season.
The reaction continued after hearing that the new manager sacks an entire squad by WhatsApp 24 hours after taking over…

Man makes decision that he’s entitled to do.
You don’t like it so plaster his phone number over the internet, bit pathetic from a grown man.— Dan (@DanG_WFC) May 17, 2020
Oh god people like this are the worst twats. They take is so seriously, talk in football clichés and then just get all their mates in to play with them because they have the mental age of 5 year olds
