Nuneaton Town have appointed Kevin Wilson as their new manager.
Wilson, who played for Derby, Ipswich Town and Chelsea, as well as the Northern Ireland national team for whom he made 42 appearances, had been at Ilkeston Town but told Nuneaton's website: Wilson said: "I'm excited and looking forward to taking on a new and different challenge.
"Nuneaton had a difficult season and relegation is hard to take, but they have done well to stay in the top flight of non-league football for three seasons. Everyone knows how tough the Conference Premier is, but it's where non-league clubs want to be. My job is to lay the foundations and build a team capable of getting the club back up there, which will take patience and time.
"I want to establish a squad of players who are hungry to do well. A blend of youth and experience with the right attitude to achieve success. I know from experience that it can be done and that's the philosophy that I'll be introducing at Nuneaton Town.
"I'm relishing this opportunity. The first thing I'm going to do is speak to the current squad and assess the way things are at the club. I'm not afraid to make tough decisions, though, and change the way things are done because I'm confident that in the long term it will bring positive results.
"I encourage a passing game where players know their individual and collective responsibilities. I'm fair and honest and want the club to do well. We'll all be working very hard to achieve success. It may not happen overnight, but that's the aim.
"I expect my players to show commitment, passion and desire and play exciting football. The fans pay good money to watch Nuneaton Town so it's only fair that we do our best to give them something they will enjoy."
