Centre of Excellence Manager Illegally Leaves

Last updated : 14 September 2006 By Matthew Jones
Tranmere Rovers Centre of Excellence manager Warren Joyce has illegally left Rovers to join Belgium side Royal Antwerp, despite still being under contract with Tranmere Rovers.

Joyce, who has failed to honour his contract, didn't notify the club of his move, and it was only when Royal Antwerp announced on their Official Site that Joyce had joined them, did Rovers know what had happened.

The case is being looked into by the Tranmere Rovers Football Club solicitor and the club has reassured fans, parents and young players that the Centre of Excellence will continue to run as normal.
