!! BREAKING NEWS !!

It is with deep sadness to communicate that Talbot Knowle Utd AFC will not be participating in the 2018/19 season and have been taken the decision to disband the club.

Mark Dite took the decision this summer with great sadness claiming that one of the main contributing factors was the lack of commitment from players. Mark had worked tirelessly for a number of years each week ensuring the club had a side to put out on the Saturday take a up a huge amount of time and effort and commitment.

It was evident from last season and pre-season that players are no longer as committed as they once were several years ago. Often having players call to say they couldn’t play on the morning of a game, not respond or even walk off of the pitch during a game.

The club had run for several years with the most recent achievement of achieving back to back to back promotions to the Bristol Premier Combination League as well as winning the GFA cup coming Runners up in the Fry's Tournament.

Mark would like to thank all of the players that supported him and contributed to the clubs success over the years and to those that also that collectively suffered defeats in the freezing January rain and those that celebrated promotions and cup wins!

Mark will now be taking some time away from football before deciding what he wants to do in the future.

Thanks again...
