Northern Knights fast bowler Tony Goodin is disappointed former Bay of Plenty coach Ben Williams was allowed to quit.
Goodin, who had taken 28 wickets in the Cornwall Cricket League for Werrington in the English summer, said it was a shame the popular Williams would no longer be in charge
of the side.
"I'm disappointed that Ben has resigned, but more disappointed in the association for letting it happen," he said. "The amount of time he gives up and effort he puts in to help the boys is outstanding."
But Goodin, who joined fellow rising Bay players Bharat Popli and Joe Carter in the Northern Knights squad when he was announced as a contracted player for the second time on Friday, did not believe Williams' departure marked the end of an era.
"I don't think so ... the processes that James Pamment put in place before moving to the Knights and that Ben followed on with will continue to produce quality players.
