Why have one manager, when you can have two?

Potters Bar Town did it. Wingate and Finchley did it- although given they have two names it seemed rather appropriate. And now Basildon United have done it, appointing two managers as they look to get their promotion bid back on track.

One of the duo steps from boardroom to dugout, chairman Lee Connor giving up his suit for a tracksuit on a permanent basis, David Maxwell his successor. Lee is joined on the bench by Barkingside manager Michael Walther.

The duo will start their Bostik League tenure with the visit of Felixstowe and Walton United on Saturday.
