Bartlett Back At Weston As Seagulls Look To The Future

Weston-super-Mare believe Scott Bartlett is the man to return the club to the National League South.

The well-respected coach is back for a second spell in charge of the Seagulls.

He hopes to lead the club back up after their relegation to the Southern League last month.

“My immediate goal now is to work with the board to build a squad that the supporters deserve and one that will challenge at the top of the table,” he told the club’s website.

“Relegation was unfortunate but it gives us – the management team, the board and the supporters a chance to rebuild and rebuild properly in a good way.

“Our training facilities are impressive for this level and the club has moved on in that respect since I was last here.

“It’s important we sign the right players, we need a squad that are desperate to fight for the club.

“I will spend the next 24 hours discussing players with Mark McKeever who has done a great job of steadying the ship, he has been a credit to the club and I am looking forward to working with him.

“In addition, I hope to bring in an experienced assistant player/coach who has played at a much higher level, hoping they have a similar impact to the one Chris Barker did.

“I hope you share my excitement for the season ahead, we should be respectful of the league we are in but enjoy the challenge it brings.”
