Tooth Ready To Bite The Bullet!
THEY SAY in life to never go back, but for Neil Tooth it was simply a no-brainer.
Tooth earned his place in Royals protocol after leading Sutton Coldfield Town into the Evo-Stik Northern Premier in 2015-16.
Now, just over a year after ending his seven-year stay at Coles Lane, Tooth is enjoying an emotional reunion at his hometown club, tasked with maintaining the club’s proud Step 3 status.
It’s something of a fairytale return for Tooth, who lost his job as manager of Hednesford Town after just seven games in charge at the start of the season before taking over at Evo-Stik South bottom club Romulus.
And it’s come at just the right time too for Sutton Coldfield Town, who completed a miracle escape from relegation under boss Richard Sneekes last season, only to continue their struggle for the first half of this season.
