That's a strange one but then again Hobbs has been there a long time.

I watched last night's post match interview and Lee said the club had a trip to Benidorm lined up and that he was looking forward to going. Resigned about 16 hours later.

I think to show some respect for his efforts down the years it’s come out that he’s resigned rather than pushed out.

Darren Way the next manager apparently.

That would be a great appointment.

Hobbs has done so well but perhaps time to shift up a gear.

That's interesting. Is it more than a rumour ? My son saw him in Plymouth a couple times recently and when we saw Lee Hobbs resignation we wondered. The Parkway coaches / physio etc have been involved in the academy in recent years so it would seem a natural fit.
With all his young player contacts he could be to Parkway what Foster was to Argyle!!
Only joking - having observed him in action he would appear to be the polar opposite to Foster in management style .. thankfully.
As for the departing Hobbs - I'm not an expert on local football, but it appears that he has done a remarkable job over recent years. I enjoyed the Parkway documentaries which gave a good insight into his ability to motivate.

Seems a bit harsh if he was effectively sacked, the last couple of months seemed like an almost impossible situation with up to 3 games a week and home games played over 100 miles away, and Parkway still stayed up. Do Parkway have ambition to kick on to the conference (or whatever it is called these days)? If so I guess they are looking in a different pool to take a step up in professionalism ...

Darren Way lives in Plymouth so not a surprise to see him in the City.
He was at Home Park last Tuesday watching the U18s against Oxford.
Surprised no one has linked him to the Argyle job.

Some articles in the 'erald recently. One was an explanation by Lee Hobbs on why he resigned (exhausted, but actually wants a team with a higher chance of promotion (bigger budget) .

Parkway (apparently) don't have the budget to compete with the bigger teams in the league (sound familiar?)

Another, indicating there have been more than 30 applicants for his job.

Hmm.
