Bamber Bridge FC have announced that Joey Collins has stepped down from his role as First Team Manager for personal reasons. Joey's departure is by mutual consent and will provide him with much-needed time with his family.

The club would like to thank Joey for all his efforts over the last eight months as first team manager and previously as a member of the club’s coaching staff, and wish him all the best for the future.

Applications are not being invited for the managerial post. An announcement about interim arrangements will be made in due course.
