How quickly you forget just how bad Wellington United's hand got... Stu Jacobs was actually appointed as head coach in January (so there must have been some work in the background well in advanced of this), and then Stu left them even higher and drier by pulling the pin late in the piece. Would have been a difficult year for any club in this position (losing their coach so close to the start of the season), let alone the situation that United were in coming into the year.

Maybe Stu had to withdraw cos he was red flagged for owing 2 cones & a bib to Olympic?
