Ks co-chairman Mark Anderson has launched a damning attack on the club’s players after they failed to make the Ryman Premier League play-offs.

Boss Tommy Williams’ men flopped 2-0 at relegation-threatened Harrow Borough on Saturday to put a top five finish mathematically beyond them.

Ks can finish the campaign no higher than ninth in the table in Williams’ first full season in charge.

Anderson, who welcomed news Alan Inns, Aaron Goode, Sam Page and Pelayo Pico Gomez had agreed deals for next term, has backed his manager’s efforts on a tight budget this term.

“Ultimately, we should have got into the play-offs,” he said.

“The standard of the league this year was so poor. I feel disappointed because when it came to the crunch we let ourselves down.

“I think Tommy [Williams] has done a great job given the budgetary constraints a small team like ours has to have to survive.

“But the players have let him down.”

Williams will be at the Kingsmeadow helm next term, but Anderson questions how many of the current squad will be there with him – despite being unconvinced of the quality available to replace those who leave.

“The players we want to keep are committed and we are in the process off talking to others,” he added.

“We have had expectations of success for the past seven or eight years and keep falling short.

“We have to break that mould. We cannot keep floundering at this level.

“The manager has given the board a broad idea of what he wants to do and there will be changes.

“Defensively we are fine, but we didn’t score enough goals and that has been the story for the past eight years.

“But ultimately he will be dipping into the same pool of average footballers all the other teams are looking at.”
