Ardley United manager Kevin Brock has expressed his dismay after Nick Thorne left to sign for Uhlsport Hellenic League Premier Division rivals Witney Town. “I’m very disappointed,” admitted Brock. “ I only found out about Thorney this week. He (Thorne) originally told me that he was happy to stay and play for us.
“Then he rang me to say he was going to Witney. “We are going to miss the chances that Thorney created.” Brock added: “He (JustinMerritt) has put together a good side, but as you can appreciate, Justin is not my favourite person at the moment.”
