'Following the departure of Kye Mountford at the end of last season, we are delighted to announce that Andy Sandell will be joining the management team as Assistant Manager/Coach with immediate effect.

Andy has a wealth of experience in the professional and non league game and will be a welcome addition to the team.

Welcome back to the club Andy.

I was disappointed that Kye Mountford could no longer commit to the role following the abrupt end to last seasons play off push, but respect his decision.

I thank Kye for his efforts since bringing him to the club and he provided an excellent link between players and management during last season, playing a part in an enjoyable period.

I am really pleased to be bringing Andy back to the club where we played together back in 2004. Darren Perrin signed Andy and I could see what a prospect he was back then, he’s one of the best/ most influential players I played with throughout my non league games and I wasn’t surprised he went on to play many games in the professional game for Bristol Rovers and Wycombe Wanderers as well as non league.

I am very much looking forward to having Andy join Paul Tovey, Jack Benden and me as part of the management team working with this group of players.'
