Simon Ferry breaks Broomhill Open Goal silence as he confirms end of partnership

Simon Ferry has confirmed he will leave Broomhill and Open Goal will sever its ties with the Lowland League club at the end of the season.

Record Sport revealed on Wednesday the partnership would end after just a year. The football media firm took over at Broomhill in May last year and moved the club to play at Broadwood Stadium in Lanarkshire. Ferry, who played for Swindon Town, Portsmouth, Dundee and Peterhead, took over as manager and recruited his fellow podcast star Paul Slane. A number of other ex professionals joined Broomhil including Kirk Broadfoot, Derek Lyle, Ryan Conroy and Gary Fraser.

Open Goal currently sit in 11th position in the league, 24 points off The Spartans who lead the way at the summit. The highlight of the Open Goal season was reaching the third round of the Scottish Cup where they were eventually eliminated by Alloa Athletic. Ferry said he is proud he has managed to develop players during his time at Broomhill.
