Brechin City FC wish to announce the appointment of our new Manager. After careful consideration of the wide range of applications received the Club have agreed terms with former Hibs, St Johnstone Inverness, Dundee Utd, Falkirk & Forfar defender Darren Dods who joins the Club as with immediate effect.
Chairman Ken Ferguson said ‘ We are pleased to welcome Darren Dods as the new manager of Brechin City FC. We wish to thank everyone who applied for the vacancy arising from Ray, Grant & Darren’s departure to Raith Rovers and those that attended for interview. We feel Darren’s experience in the game and his knowledge of Division One are important assets that will help him get established at Brechin City FC. There is much work to be done in building a squad for the new season, however we have good players already signed up and we are confident Darren has the contacts in the game to create a team capable of competing in this highly competitive league. ‘
Darren Dods said ‘ I welcome the opportunity to come and manage Brechin City FC. I have experienced what Brechin City has to offer in our battles over the past two seasons. I greatly look forward to meeting and working with the players who have already demonstrated their commitment to the Club as we look to build a squad for the new season. Division One is a great league to play in and I am sure it will be a great league to also manage in, I am clear on our objectives as we look to be challenging amongst the best of the part time teams in Scotland. I thank the Club for showing faith in me as a young manager and I and I look to repay that faith through hard work and endeavour. ‘
Darren will announce the makeup of his backroom team over the course of the coming days.
