They
succeed Brian Richardson, who tendered his resignation earlier this summer to
join FC United of Manchester – relegated from the Vanarama National League
North - as assistant-manager.
Dom
Finnigan has also joined the coaching staff, with Garry Williams remaining as
goalkeeping coach.
A
club statement said: “The club wishes to build on the successes of the last few
seasons and as such feels that by promoting from within we have the best chance
of doing so.
“The
aim is for an ‘evolution’ of the squad rather than the ‘revolution’ that so
often happens at our level of football.
“Steve
and Roy will be familiar to Cables supporters, given that both were part of the
coaching staff under Andy Paxton and Brian Richardson.
“Steve
and Roy also have managerial experience in their own right; Steve won two cup
competitions while with Atherton Collieries whilst Roy has previously worked at
Ashton Athletic and Wigan Robin Park.
“We
congratulate Steve and Roy on their new roles and offer a warm welcome to Dom;
the hard work in preparing for next season starts now”. |
