A former Welsh international striker, Lovell, he turned professional for Crystal Palace in August 1977 and appeared in two FA Youth Cup final triumphs. 

 

He joined Millwall in March 1983 and was top scorer in their 1984/85 promotion success.

 

Loaned to Swansea in February 1987, he scored once in two League outings while at the Vetch Field.

 

He moved to Gillingham in February 1987, then played for Bournemouth and assisted several non-League clubs, managing Sittingbourne (twice), Gravesend and Hastings United.

 

 

Joining Lovell as assistant manager and first-team coach will be Tristan Lewis, who will need no introduction to Welling fans having originally set up the club`s new academy.

 

Lewis has most recently been first-team coach at Ebbsfleet United where, after being appointed alongside Kevin Watson as manager with the club looking like relegation certainties, they almost oversaw the “Great Escape” and arguably would have done had the 2019/20 season not been cut short due to the pandemic

 

Craig Lewis will also re-join the club to assist with fitness and conditioning.

 

Meanwhile, Garry Fiore has stepped down from his role as director of football.

 

Fiore will remain in his role as academy director alongside Brett Smith and Barry Jeffreys.
