Former Kidderminster manager John Pemberton has been giving his version of events which led to him leaving the club.
This morning the club issued a statement about him leaving in essence blaming Pemberton for their poor form this season. (http://bullsnews.blogspot.com/2019/11/manager-pemberton-quits-harriers.html)
However, as reported by the Halesowen News, Pemberton has hit back.
"I was given a blind horse and asked to win the Grand National.
"All
I've been told is lies. The statement made it clear they have taken no
responsibility. I found the position untenable, I cannot carry on in the
circumstances, for six months it's been a firefight.
"I have had no backing at the club, all they have done is move the goalposts, I was promised the Earth but they cut budgets.
"I had nine players for pre-season, I signed Ashley Hemmings and
thought that would start a turnaround but I was told I couldn't bring in
any players."
Pemberton said he had agreed to go quitely but then read the Kidderminster statement.
"I found it difficult to read, I thought that is not right. I walked
away and was happy to keep my mouth shut but they are pushing it under
my door. I wish they had been honest from day one so I knew what I was
walking into."
