Norbury Departs From Athletic
11th June, 2010
Team Manager Mick Norbury has left Worsbrough Bridge to take up a management position at Harrogate Railway in the Evo-Stik League.
A club spokesman told the NCEL website: "Mick goes with the best wishes of all at Worsbrough.
"We understand that Mick could not afford to turn down the chance to move back up to the Evo-Stik League where he had previously worked with Goole.
"We thank him for what he did for us by stepping in at short notice to try to help us through a crisis in the middle of the season."
Worsbrough have moved quickly to appoint a new management duo.
They will be Ian Shirt, who worked with Mick Norbury last season, and Chris Hilton who came to the club as player-coach towards the end of the season.
Ian has been with the Club for a number of years firstly as a player and then he managed a successful U19s team for a couple of seasons before moving up to Reserves and then latterly with the First Team alongside Mick.
Ian has a wealth of knowledge of local youngsters through his continued involvement in U18's soccer and has already brought several youngsters through to First Team contention.
Chris has decided to accept the Club's offer to move into management, despite numerous offers to extend his playing career, which has already included long and successful spells at Sheffield FC and Frickley Athletic where he was captain.
He has just completed a Testimonial at Frickley, awarded for his sterling service to them over the years.
Chris brings with him an extensive knowledge of Non-League and, like Mick, has many contacts at all levels of the game.
After an indifferent season last year the new management team are looking to make an early start to pre-season and are hoping to bring some important signings for the new campaign.

Worsbrough Manager Search Begins
11th October, 2009
Following a run of poor results at Worsbrough Bridge Athletic, their manager has decided to step down.
Darrell Bowman has said that he felt he had taken this group of players as far as he could.
He stated that they were a very good group of players but that he was finding motivation for both the players and himself more and more difficult as games go by.
He added that the recent run of results has affected his home life and was beginning to affect his health and that he felt that he needed a break to try and recharge his batteries and recover his enthusiasm for the game.
He did not rule out returning to the club, and football in general, in the not too distant future.
Darrell has been in sole charge of Athletic since 2004 after a spell in working alongside Alan Billingham.
The Club accepted his decision with regret, saying: "We sincerely hope that, after a period of recuperation, he will come back to Worsbrough in some capacity - maybe without the pressure of the first team.
"Darrell has worked tirelessly, and very often thanklessly, all of the time that he has been in charge, working on a shoestring budget and he has successfully introduced some good players to the Worsbrough Bridge set up.
"During his time, the team has had good performances and bad ones and this inconsistency has always been the biggest issue that Darrell has had to wrestle with for all the time he has been manager.
"Worsbrough Bridge have the highest regard for Darrell both as a Manager and as a person and we wish him and his family all the best for the future - and we hope to see him back helping at Park Road sooner rather than later."
In the interim the second team manager, Ian Shirt, will take over the first team duties until a replacement is found.
The club are therefore looking for a manager for the first team.
