Connor Returns
Blyth Town would like to announce the return of Michael Connor to the First Team Management.
Chairman Scott Douglas said “although a bit left field I was delighted Mick reached out to Gav to seal his return to the first team. It feels a little bit like they have unfinished business and I’m delighted to have the duo back together. Im very excited for our future”
Gavin Fell said “I would like to welcome Mick back to the club.
Mick and I spoke at length about what needs to be achieved this season.
We also spoke about how it needed to be different this time around, I know Mick won’t mind me saying this, but the timing was probably right when he moved on, he needed to deal with different people, different fans and gain a different footballing experience, as he had spent many years at Blyth Town and maybe felt a little less motivated
I’ve seen a different side to Mick, he has definitely got the fire burning again, i sense he feels he has a point to prove, and i see someone who loves Blyth Town Football Club and them three things are going to be hugely important for the rest of the season.
It’s going to be great to have Mick back working with our awesome management team, some he knows really really well (Paddy, Ruff and Milly) and a couple of new faces in Emily and Sam, but this familiarity is important, as we don’t have time to get to know another new face, having someone who gets this group and the club was key, and no one knows Blyth Town better than Mick.
Welcome back 👊🏼👊🏼”
After sealing his return to Blyth Town, Mick speaks about his return “After talking with Gav and Scott it was a no brainer for me to return, it’s a club close to my heart and has been a massive part of my life. To be back with Gav was massive for me as I loved working with him first time round. Add Scott,Darren and Sandra to the mix along with the brilliant coaching staff I just don’t think twice about it. I’m super excited about the challenges ahead and getting started with this great group of players”
Welcome back Mick
