What Happened
Eastleigh Football Club has appointed Richard Hill as interim manager following the sacking of Scott Bartlett. Hill, who has previously managed the club during two separate tenures, will lead the team until the end of the season. His first match back will be against Truro City on Wednesday night, followed by a home game against Carlisle on Saturday.
Why It Matters
The club currently sits 18th in the National League, just six points above the relegation zone. Eastleigh’s vice-chairman, Tom Coffey, expressed disappointment with the team’s performance this season, stating that the club’s budget should allow them to compete higher in the league. Hill’s immediate objective is to stabilize the team and secure the necessary results to avoid relegation.
What’s Next
As Eastleigh begins the search for a permanent manager, Hill’s short-term goal is to improve the team’s performance and results. The club aims to regain its footing in the National League and avoid the threat of relegation as they navigate the remainder of the season.
