Gedling Miners Welfare Football Club Chairman Vic Hulme has announced the appointment of Ruben Wiggins –Thomas as first team manager for the forthcoming season.
Vic said “Ruben has been with the club as a player and now transitions to management. In his time with the club, Ruben has been a model professional and we have no doubts he will bring the same professionalism to his new role.
“The committee unanimously made the choice as he deserves the opportunity to take up the new position.”
Vic continued by saying that “The club also wants to thank Andy Clerke for his efforts over the last five years at Plains Road. Andy has worked hard to improve the standards on and off the pitch and leaves the job due to an opportunity that has arisen elsewhere.
“It is with regret that we see him leave as he has become a part of the Gedling family; however, the club understands his decision and wishes him all the best in his new venture.”
Andy commented that he is delighted to see that one of the players he brought into the club has now been given the opportunity to replace him. He wishes Ruben every success in his new role.
