Leaney is joint boss
WELLINGTON Football Club have appointed Mark Leaney to run the Toolstation premier division side alongside new manager Warren Patmore.
Leaney managed Wells City to promotion to the Toolstation League in 2007-08 and has started the new season as manager of Somerset County League outfit Glastonbury Town.
Former Yeovil Town star Patmore took over Wellington in the summer after Leigh Robinson moved to become joint manager at Bridgwater Town.
“Since joining us as manager, Warren has made a huge impression on everyone at the club and put in a huge amount of time and effort into the job,” said chairman Ken Bird.
“But he has also come under increasing pressure with his business in Watford, which means we have been looking for someone to share the managerial workload.
“Mark Leaney comes with an excellent track record and coaching qualifications and we are delighted to have him on board.”
Leaney takes up the post of joint manager with immediate effect and will be at Wellington’s premier division match at Hallen tomorrow (Saturday).
