The Askern Villa management team of Brian Johnston and Mark Vickerage have added former Scunthorpe United YT player Lee Wilkinson to their coaching staff.

Lee (26) is regarded as one of the senior players in the Askern squad, is a popular and well respected member in the changing room and is a great addition to the management team.

Johnston said: "Both me and Mark are pleased that Lee's agreed to takeover as first-team coach.

"He knows how we work as we've all been together for a number of years now at Frickley Athletic Under-19s and then Askern.

"We feel it is a positive move for the club, and keeps us moving in the right direction."
