Warren Patmore is a former non-league footballer most notable for his career with Yeovil Town where he is considered one of the club's greatest ever players, scoring 140 goals in 287 games for the Glovers, making him the club's third top goal-scorer of all time.[1]
Playing career
Patmore played first team football at many league clubs including Cambridge United, Millwall and Northampton Town. He then went to Northern Ireland to play for Ards F.C. before finding first team football at non-league club Yeovil Town.
In the summer of 2001 Patmore moved to Rushden & Diamonds, scoring on his debut for Rushden against York City.[2]
Patmore has also played for the England non-league side on a number of occasions before ending his career at Margate in 2003.
Management
Patmore was an instant success with Management gaining two promotions in three seasons with Devon & Exeter Football League side Morchard Bishop. Looking for a return to Somerset Patmore applied unsuccessfully for the vacant managerial job at Taunton Town. However he was successful with his application for the managerial position at Wellington in June 2009. In what was only Wellington's second season in the Premier League he guided them to tenth-place finish. On 9 May 2010, Patmore resigned as Wellington manager, citing distance to travel as the main reason behind his resignation.[3]
In June 2010 Patmore was appointed as the new manager of South West Peninsula League side Witheridge[4] but left the club in November by mutual consent after issues with the chairman, and the club mid table.
He later managed Crediton United but left the club after leading the club to their highest placed league finish in 21 years of 4th; due to "club lacking the ambition to move forward".[5]
Warren is currently the Tiverton Town reserve team manager.
