Margate Football Club is disappointed to confirm that Manager Ben Greenhalgh has received an offer to become manager of an Isthmian Premier Division side.
Greenhalgh who has managed over 100 games for the club and played over 250 appearances for the Blues as a player leaves as one of our most decorated players in recent times.
As Manager, Greenhalgh led us to a play-off semi-final in his first campaign as manager, before narrowly missing out by one point this season.
Whilst hugely disappointed to be losing Ben, Chairman Ricky Owen praised his impact on Margate FC.
“We are disappointed that this has come about out of the blue. We stuck by Ben and was ready to do so again for the 2026/27 season ahead. To receive this news at this time is particularly frustrating but the search for Ben’s replacement starts in earnest”.
“I’ve had a fantastic relationship with Ben, he is a good person who I have enjoyed working with. There is no question about how influential he has been at the club. He led us to a play-off campaign in his first season and narrowly missed out this year”.
The Club will make no further comment at this time other than wishing Ben all the best for his future endeavours.
