Former Coventry City U23's coach Nicky Eaden has been appointed as the new manager of Hednesford Town.
Birmingham based Eaden did a good job with City U23's before going to Chesterfield with Jack Lester and failing to keep them in the Football League.
Eaden turned up in the summer at Nuneaton Borough, who were going through their latest crisis. He worked with Lee Fowler in difficult circumstances until November.
Now, he has gone to Hednesford with Gary Howard and said to the Hednesford club website; “I’m looking forward to getting going. Some people are perhaps surprised that I would take a job at this level but I see Hednesford as a great club and an opportunity to create something really good.
“My first management job, with Nuneaton, could be best described as challenging but after speaking to people here at Hednesford I could tell that the set-up here was right. I’m very much looking forward to getting the club moving in the right direction again and playing good football.
“I feel as if I have a good mix with myself and Gaz – he is very experienced in the non-league game and with both our contacts that we possess we feel that we can create a good team.”
