Ex Darlington and Corby Town boss Tommy Wright has been appointed the new Town manager to take over from the departed Thomas Baillie.

A former England Under 19 and Under 20 international he began his professional career at Leicester City and went on to represent Barnsley, Blackpool and Brentford amongst others before dropping into Non League at Darlington with whom he won the F A Trophy in 2011.

He then became player/manager at Corby Town in September 2013 and steered them to the Southern League Premier Division Championship in the 2014/15 season.

He subsequently moved to Nuneaton Town for the 2016/17 campaign and then rejoined Darlington this time as manager in October 2017 where he stayed until the end of last season.

Town supporters will wish Tommy all the best in his new role at the Arden Garages Stadium, while it has also been confirmed that Paul Davis is to stay on as Assistant Manager along with Steve Walker as First Team Coach.
