Alsager Town Football Club has appointed new faces to lead the first team in what is hoped will be a new start.

The club parted company with Ricardo Reeves, who had only been with the club a month ago, at the weekend after a bad 5 – 1 defeat to Cammel Laird.

Alsager has appointed Karl Brown as first team manager, Liam Marsh as assistant manager and Josh Shepherd as coach to lead their first team who face Stockport Town tonight (Tuesday).

And today the chairman, Terry Greer, urged fans to come and support the club in what he promised was a "long term" appointment.

He told Alsager Nub News: "We have had a disastrous season from day one but I can assure you that this is a long-term appointment.

"I was advised badly with my last appointment but I am confident we will now see a change.

"I am urging supporters to come and support the new managers and players and help us move forward.

"Come and enjoy the football and help your local team stay in this league."
