Defoe's 116-day Woking reign ends after missed report, missed meeting and missed training

Jermain Defoe left Woking FC after 116 days as manager. Director of football Jody Brown said he repeatedly asked Defoe and assistant Paul Bracewell for a report on squad depth, recruitment and operations — it never arrived. Both then missed a preseason planning meeting and a training session. Woking's season opener against Sutton United is two weeks away.
