Keyte – "Overwhelmed by response"

Speaking to Bulls News this afternoon, Bulls' Chairman David Keyte said he has been inundated with messages of goodwill since taking over the reins with Tim Russon.

"The response has been incredible and it's been a very hectic couple of weeks."

"We've had letters of support from all over the County and beyond including from local Clubs like Westfields and Pegasus…it's all very encouraging."

"We just haven't had time to reply but we'll get round to it as things start to settle down. Perhaps through your website I could just say thank you to all and the letters are really appreciated."

"We've covered a lot of ground already but there is so much to do. Now we have our football management team in place we can start to look at other issues. The appointment of Simon and Andy will free us up to deal with the commercial matters. It was a process that just needed to take the time it did. We had an impressive list of applicants including one from the Subuteo Champion of London who offered to come with his own three-handed backroom staff!"

Keyte understandably was reluctant to name any of the other applicants for the manager's post but didn't confirm or deny that Dennis Bergkamp was on the list.

"I'm sure Simon has a list of players he wants to bring to Edgar Street and hopefully it won't be long before we can make a few more announcements."

The Chairman is looking forward to the friendly games and in particular to the Swansea game which was, of course, one of Simon Davey's early Clubs as a player.

"I'd like to see a decent crowd here on July 13th as we start our build-up to what is going to be an exciting season for all of us."
