Morgan Takes Thackley Helm
24th September, 2009
Dave Morgan is the new manager of Thackley Football Club.
The ex-Silsden assistant fills a vacancy created by the resignation of Billy Fox early last week.
As a player, Morgan attracted interest from several Football League clubs but, instead, opted for a semi-professional career that included stints with Morecambe, Colne Dynamoes and Guiseley.
In the latter colours, he twice trod the Wembley turf, his first visit - in 1991 - prefacing a victorious FA Vase Final replay at Bramall Lane.
Said Thackley spokesman Christopher Frank: "We are delighted to have secured the services of such a knowledgeable and well respected footballing figure as Dave Morgan. The future is bright and exciting; the recent past has now been laid to rest."
The club would like to take the opportunity to thank all who expressed a speculative interest in the post.
