Vacancy for Welling United Club Secretary announced on twitter. Looks like Barrie Hobbins has decided to retire after so many years since the club's formation. He is very well respected by non league clubs everywhere.

It might be nice for the club to confirm one way or the other. Is this someone to work with Barrie, to replace or to gradually take over?- Another example of communication missing.
If Barrie is retiring then someone needs to work closely with him for a while to understand what a job he has done for the club. The occasion shouldn't go unmarked either
We now have a prime candidate to become the new President of the Club. I can think of no other person who would be more deserving of this honour than Mr Hobbins.

In three words I can sum up everything i've learnt in life; it goes on.
With Barry removing himself as a director a few months ago and Barrie vacating his secretary post. Surely its time for WUSA to organise a testimonial for them?
Agree Barrie should be a lifetime president
As for Secretary we surely have a ready made successor in Chris Roots who has been learning behind the scenes since hes been at the club having previously been at Croydon.

Surely it would be better to have someone who actually knows something about football.
Whoever gets the job you would hope its not another cost cutting excercise and anyone who will do it for nothing with no knowledge or experience of football at this level and the one above.
Secretary and a proven commercial manager are must haves and those making the decisions on who is appointed have to get it right And not hire the free or cheap option just for the sake of it.
