New Manager at Bridlington Town

Bridlington Town's Chairman has announced a change of manager at the football club.

In a statement on the club's website Bridlington Town Chairman, Daniel Rogers, announced that first team manager Adie Costello has been replaced by his assistant, Denny Ingram.

The statement said:

"We announce, by mutual consent, the release of Adrian Costello and appointment of Denny Ingram as Manager.

When we took over the reins from Pete Smurthwaite, Adie kindly agreed to stay on in his role to ensure continuity at the club during the transitional period that followed. Despite significant delays caused by lawyers behind the scenes, Adie stepped up the plate, went above and beyond netting us some great signings for the season with just 4 weeks notice. Challenges remain, but I personally would like to thank Adie for his passion and professional service to the club and look forward to continuing to work with him as he continues to assist the club in other areas.

We remain resolute in our ambition to take Bridlington Town to Conference North within 5 years and we must project the professional image that we want to be. To this end, we are also delighted to announce the appointment of Bridlington stalwart Gavin Branton as Chief Executive of the club a separate statement will be issued by Gavin in due course.

For now, I finish this statement with a simple question.

We are dedicated.

Your management team are dedicated.

Your players who are staying are dedicated.

Your volunteers who selflessly give up their time week on week to ensure the football club can thrive for the local community are dedicated.

Are you?

One thing remains true regardless of the ups and downs is that without fan support the club will not progress, so I urge you to get behind Denny and the team, turn up, show your support, cheer them on and let’s turn the corner together as one united family."

Bridlington have not had a good start to the season with three defeats and two draws from their five league games placing the club third from bottom in the table.
