RUNCORN Linnets have announce the permanent appointments of the management team of Joey Dunn and Stuart Humphreys after an interim spell in charge at the Millbank Linnets Stadium.

Chairman Derek Greenwood said: “When we initially approached Joey about taking over the vacant manager’s role we wanted to ensure that both he and the club had an interim spell to ensure the appointment was right both for Joey and the club.

"He quickly brought in Stu Humphreys as his number 2 and the results under their management have been outstanding and after a meeting last night the club was pleased that he and Stuart accepted the positions on a permanent basis”

Joey Dunn was equally delighted, saying: “Both Stuart and I have been really pleased with the progress the team has made since our arrival.

"We have managed to bring in some real quality to add to the good players who were already at the football club.

"The support we have received from the club has been first class and the fans have been outstanding. This is a club with great potential and we are now looking to build on the success of the last 3 months and to move the club forward.”
