Gorman Departs Wycombe

John Gorman has ended his time as manager of Wycombe after struggling to come to terms with the loss of his wife.

His wife Myra died from Cancer in February and Gorman spent two months on compassionate leave. He briefly returned in April, but was sent home shortly after. A statement on the official Wycombe site reads: "The Board of Directors of WWFC have today reluctantly agreed to release John Gorman from his position as Manager of this Club.

The Board believe John needs a great deal more time and professional help to deal with the tragic loss of his wife.

In the meantime, we need to continue with the operation of the Football Club and a financial package has been agreed with John which he is satisfied with.

The Directors and staff would like to thank John for his excellent contribution to the Football Club over the last 18 months and trust the next period of his life with what we have agreed today will enable him to stabilise and become stronger."
