He will be working alongside James Hunter, Rob Rennard and Andy Jaffray in the Boysie backroom set-up.

John brings a wealth of experience having previously been involved at Billingham Town and was mostly manager of TIBS, who he guided to a 4th place finish in the North Riding League Premier League last season.

Speaking about his new role John said:
"Having spoken with Jama and Rob for a few weeks now, the vision and ambition within the club is clear.

"I know only too well how good this group of lads can be from last season and helping them as they venture into Northern League football is something I am really looking forward to!"

Welcome to Boysie, John!
