Bray Wanderers FC Club Statement – 2nd April 2015
New Management Team Appointment
Bray Wanderers is delighted to confirm the appointment of Maciej Tarnogrodzki as caretaker first team coach with immediate effect.
Maciej has worked on youth development at Bray Wanderers over the past season and has overseen the Bray Wanderers under 19s team. He joined the Seagulls in 2012 after a stint at Shelbourne FC.
We would like to thank Maciej for taking charge of training and first team duties last night, and he has the full support of the club and first team squad of players.
Speaking last night, Maciej Tarnogrodzki said, “We had a fantastic training session with the squad. There was a very positive and professional response from the players and we are all now fully focused on Friday and our main priority is picking up points. Our captain David Cassidy, despite injury, even took a small part in training last night and all of the players are fully behind the job at hand. The plan is very simple… we need to score goals, pick up points and move up the table. We have a very talented, young squad who are fully committed to Bray Wanderers. Results will come, we have no doubt.”
Bray Wanderers would like to thank Alan Mathews for his service to the club over the past few months. Alan was an extremely important part of the club’s survival last season. We would also like to thank his backroom team for their dedication and passion for Bray Wanderers.
Unfortunately results did not go our way during the opening games of the season, however the club is extremely confident this run of form will end and turn around.
The club would like to reassure supporters that the positive plans for Bray Wanderers are still unchanged.
The Board and Owners of Bray Wanderers are fully committed, as a priority, to sustaining the club’s Premier League status and keeping the club alive financially. There are ongoing initiatives to improve the club both on and off the pitch. These include plans to further improve and utilise facilities at the stadium, as we understand the importance of our home ground to supporters.
Finally, we would like to thank the community of Wicklow for supporting Bray Wanderers throughout the recent change of owners and management. Bray Wanderers is fully committed to youth development both on and off the pitch and we will continue to do so through Ardmore Rovers and Phoenix Youth. We will continue to inject this youth into match days and we are constantly working to change Saturday evening at the Carlisle Grounds into a family evening out.
ENDS.
No questions answered.
Number one rule of the LOIOriginally Posted by White Horse
Bray sadly has been badly run for many years now but lets blame the new owners on everything!
Lets talk about six baby
Mayhaps they can't release any reply to the Mathews statement without legal advice?
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/kepler - New music. It's not that bad.
I have no doubt Mathews and his henchmen jumped before they got the bullet. The man is a snake and is trying to preserve his LOI managerial career so he can get at least one more shot at wrecking a club on the field like he did at Shels and Drogheda.
I've also no doubt that a pub/hotel group doesn't take over a football club out of the goodness of their own hearts to burn 200-400k into a black hole per season to subsidise a perennial loss making LOI club.
There's too many questions hanging over Bray to suggest to me they'll last the season. If there's any legs on CCTV/Portakabin-gate the club is toast.
The Leinster Senior League needs a strong Bohemians
He left Shels in the lurch a couple of weeks after signing a new deal and signing up players so he probably would do it again.
Cooke would be looking for a decent budget to work with and he won't get that with a club where there's questions over whether he would even get paid himself!

Best practice would be not to make any statements to the media on such contentious things without it but they could if they wanted to obviously.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Just appoint Roddy and let's get this party started
It's all about the party with you!
The club seems to be a mess. I was talking to a bohs fan at Ireland game & he said they missed about 10 mins as Bray had nobody selling tickets & nobody seemed to know what was going on & who was in charge.
We can hope ...
Bray chairman speaks on Today FM. Doesn't add much to be honest, as the threat of legal action means he would not discuss the controversy in detail.

It is very clear there are a number of odd things on the go. They are avoiding completely former players being owed money. They are trying to cover all issues with positive spin. And most importantly they are not going to allow any discussion which will leave them open to any scrutiny. I hope the club will get through this, we don't need this crap so soon in the season.
Bit harsh, the man with the same name as the publican in The Riordans has done okay so far.
I know Drogs had a bit of a spell early '80s but surely it should be Fr Dev for the Wicklow lads!
Fr Dev was Glenroe not The Riordans
I know - I was alluding to the Wicklow soap and Bray needing some Devine (sic) intervention. At least one Journo was quietly thinking that way.
