Gavin Allen: Aberystwyth Town legend appointed as manager
Aberystwyth Town have appointed Gavin Allen as their new first-team manager.
Allen takes the reigns of the club after being admitted onto the FAW Trust’s UEFA Pro Licence course.
He replaces Matthew Bishop who will remain at the club as a football consultant.
“In the past two years of being involved with Aberystwyth Town FC, I’ve been fortunate enough to work with some highly experienced individuals,” said Allen to Aberystwyth’s official website.
“This time has been invaluable to my development in football management, and I have learnt a lot from it.
“I am absolutely delighted to be named Manager for the coming season, and I am especially grateful to my new management team who I know are as passionate as myself when it comes to achieving success for this club.”
He will be assisted by Antonio Corbisiero and Bari Morgan who will work as joint-assistant managers.
Morgan will remain as the clubs’ U19s manager, whilst Tomos Robson has joined as Performance Analysis coach.
