Following last month's advertisement for the position of first team manager, chairman Derek Jones has reviewed the applications and the club is pleased to announce that following a successful interview Clayton Woodman has accepted the post of first team manager.

Clayton joins the Oldland Abbotonians management team from local rivals AEK Boco where he was in charge of their Marcliff Gloucester County League first team. He has previously had a long association with the junior section at the club, where he coached two teams over a period of more than 10 years before leaving to pursue opportunities elsewhere.
