Molby quits at Kiddy
Jan Molby has left Kidderminster Harries.
In a statement released this morning the Directors of Kidderminster Harriers Football Club have announced that director of football Jan Molby has resigned from his position with the club.
Following a meeting between Molby and the Directors, Molby offered his resignation from his post which the Board, after much due consideration, have reluctantly accepted.
Molby's decision brings to an end his second stint in charge of the club. Molby initially took over as manager in May 1999, leading Harriers to the Nationwide Conference in his first season in charge. Molby left Aggborough in March 2002 to take over the hot-seat at Hull City before returning in October last year as Ian Britton's replacement.
The club needs a spark to re-ignite our season and Jan felt it would be best if someone else tried to do that.
Molby's last game in charge was Tuesday night's 3-0 defeat at Chester City, a result that saw Harriers remain bottom of the Coca-Cola Football League Two.
Chairman Colin Youngjohns admitted it was a tough decision for Molby but one he accepted was in the best interests of both parties.
"Both Jan and ourselves are united in our disappointment at the league position the club currently finds itself in," Youngjohns said.
"Results haven't gone the way we would have hoped and Jan's task has been made all the more difficult by the horrendous injury problems we have suffered.
"The club needs a spark to re-ignite our season and Jan felt it would be best if someone else tried to do that.
"It was a difficult decision for him but we respect and understand his rational for this course of action."
The events at Kidderminster mean that they join Shrewsbury Town as managerless at present. Luckily no such problem is envisaged at Hereford United where manager Graham Turner is also chairman and largest single shareholder in the club.
