STATEMENT | New Board To Confirm Managerial Position

5th May 2017

Manager Andy Preece has been invited to reapply for the position of SFC manager with a new board to be constituted soon

Following Wednesday evening’s Southport Football Club Board Meeting it was decided that Andy Preece should be invited to apply for the manager’s post for the forthcoming 2017-18 season.

The Board would sincerely like to put on record their recognition of all Andy’s hard work and efforts to rectify the Club’s precarious position he inherited. Unfortunately Andy alongside Liam Watson was unable to both strengthen the squad and record positive results, which the Club naturally required and expected.

With a new Board soon to be constituted with new investment it is felt in the best interests of Southport Football Club that any long term managerial appointment and commitment should come from the new Board.
