First team manager John Nicholson has decided to step down after more than 10 years at the helm. Craig and Mark Burton on behalf of the club presented him with a memento in appreciation of his service to the club. John is taking a well-earned rest but he will still be around and involved.

Taking over the helm is Lee Clarke who is well aware that he has a hard act to follow.

Training starts on Tuesday, July 7. Anyone interested in joining the club will be made most welcome on the night. The club's annual meeting will take place on Tuesday, June 23 at the Butchers Arms, 8pm.
