West Ham part company with Skinner

West Ham United have announced that they have parted company with Head Coach Rehanne Skinner.

The club is currently second from bottom in the Barclays WSL table and Steve Kirby will take charge in an interim role for the club’s Subway Women’s League Cup quarter final tie against Manchester City on Sunday.

The club has issued the following statement:

“West Ham United can confirm that women's team Head Coach Rehanne Skinner has left the Club with immediate effect.

Recent results have not matched expectations and the Board of Directors believe that a change is necessary to help improve the team's position in the Barclays Women’s Super League as soon as possible.

The Board would like to thank Rehanne for her hard work and commitment during her time with the Hammers and wish her every success for the future.

The process of recruiting a new women’s team Head Coach is underway. The Club will make no further comment at this time.”
