David Stockdale confirmed as permanent First Team Manager

The club is pleased to announce that David Stockdale has been appointed as First Team Manager.

David took charge of the side as interim manager following the departure of Nobby Solano and has already helped us to our first league win of the season and advance into the Second Qualifying Round of the Emirates FA Cup.

His first game as permanent manager will be against Bury FC in the Emirates FA Cup Second Qualifying Round at Croft Park tomorrow.

Speaking on his appointment, David said: "I'm absolutely delighted!

"A lot of hard work has gone into this for the last 10 to 14 days, to like say the interview I did about bringing one team together and when I say one team it's the whole club as we want the fans to come along with us.

"Again it could be the old rollercoaster cliche but things are starting to develop and I'm really happy where the lads are starting off and I've just said to them tonight that this is the start as we want the feeling from Workington every week."

We congratulate David on his appointment and wish him well for the season ahead.
