Tim Flowers: Solihull Moors manager leaves club by mutual consent
[ad_1]
Analysis: BBC WM’s Steve Hermon
It may have been seen by some as a gamble to promote Tim Flowers to the manager’s job in June 2018 when Mark Yates left to join Macclesfield. But, because of his playing background, it did strike me that he would be a man who would command immediate respect in the dressing room.
He was familiar to the players and inheriting a side that ended the 2017-18 season in fine form. But nobody would have predicted them finishing second in the National League in his first and, to date, only full season as a manager.
The Moors didn’t do it in the prettiest fashion. They were rugged but effective. They didn’t mind getting stuck in and seemingly enjoyed the perceived tag of ‘Little Solihull Moors’, riling opponents with Football League experience and bigger budgets.
His time in charge brought a massive transformation off the field. They have a brand new main stand with great facilities and there’s even a club shop next to the car park, which is no longer riddled with potholes.
It’s completely unrecognisable from the ground that was falling apart in places when they were first promoted to the National League. They’ve also invested in the community and are slowly building a fanbase. They are no longer ‘Little Solihull Moors and chairman Darryl Eales’ ambitions of reaching the Football League are no longer a pipe dream.”
