The 55-year-old is only the Magpies’ fourth boss in 12 years - a spell which has seen the football club rise from the depths of non-League obscurity to one of the most recognisable names in the non-League game.
Preece’s
appointment to the role follows the club’s philosophy of promoting from within
to maintain a high level of continuity and progression.
Preece
has a wealth of experience from nearly 25 years in coaching and management
including spells with Bury, Worcester City, Northwich Victoria, Airbus UK
Broughton and Southport. Not forgetting, of course, his successful playing
career in the Premier League and Football League.
He
originally joined Jamie Vermiglio’s fledgling backroom team in June 2018,
before moving up to the full-time director of football role in the summer of
2019.
Since
then, the former Stockport County, Crystal Palace and Blackpool forward, who
holds the prestigious UEFA Pro Licence coaching qualification, has had a heavy
influence on the on-the-field setup across the entire football club.
Chorley
chairman Ken Wright told https://www.chorleyfc.com:
“It was a no-brainer to offer the job to Andy. We’re delighted he’s accepted
the role and we feel very fortunate to have someone of Andy’s calibre already
at the club. He’s an experienced manager who is well-respect in the game and he
knows all our players very well”. |
