on the pitch as well with two consecutive mid-table finishes really consolidating Romsey's position in the Wessex Premier League. At the end of the 2009–10 season, Glenn Burnett decided to step down blaming his decision to leave on how much he had to do at the club. Assistant manager Lee Harrison soon followed suit, as well as a large percentage of the squad that Glenn had been crafting over the last few seasons. In the 2010–11 season, backed by the new management duo of Wayne Mew and Stuart Long, began with many trials as Romsey searched to rebuild a team. In the end, Romsey finished in 16th position in the league despite a lack of players. One of the high points of the season was Romsey's longest-serving and most prolific player in their history, Simon De'ath, who finished with 25 league goals, placing him seventh in the goalscorer charts. Wayne Mew continued at the helm for the 2011–12 and managed to keep hold of striker Simon De'ath despite interest from numerous other clubs. Following one of Romsey's most successful seasons, where Simon De'ath was once again top scorer, after finishing in 8th place alongside two cup quarter finals, manager Wayne Mew decided to resign from the Bypass Ground. Francis Benali also resigned from the post as reserve team boss. On Thursday 31 May, Romsey appointed Danny Barker as manager taking over from former boss Wayne Mew. In his first full season in charge of the club, the side finished second bottom in the league but were spared relegation after Hayling United were relegated due to ground grading issues. On 22 October 2013, manager Danny Barker resigned from his post with the club sitting in 22nd place in the league. Carl Bennett and later John McFarlane took over as co-managers but on 30 April 2014, James Phillips was appointed the new head coach, after the club finished bottom of the league. The club then appointed Andy Samuels as Manager and whilst they finished second bottom in 2014/15, there has been steady improvement, with mid table finishes in 2015/16 and 2016/17, leading to a promotion challenges in 2017/18 and 2018/ 19 which resulted in a sixth and fourth place finishes. During the summer Andy Samuels stepped down and has been replaced by Chris McGinn, a former professional footballer and international coach.
