Woking director of football Jody Brown has thrown Jermain Defoe under the bus after he resigned as manager at National League club earlier this week.

Jermain Defoe took his first step into management with National League side Woking at the end of March, but the ex-England's striker reign has already come to an end

The former England international said he was "really gutted" for the players but that it was "impossible" for him to continue.
