New assistant boss appointed

Leigh Genesis boss Mark Maddox has completed the formation of his coaching set-up for the new season with the appointment of former Leigh player Gary Scott as his assistant manager.

Having began his career with Rotherham United, 32 year old Scott made eight appearances for Leigh while on loan at Hilton Park for the first month of the club's Nationwide Conference debut season in 2000/2001 before going on to make more than 250 appearances over eight years with Altrincham.

After playing alongside each other in the Altrincham defence, Maddox and Scott teamed up again last year as Formby's management team, with Scott also proving to be a useful addition to the playing squad along with the coaching staff.

Scott's appointment completes Maddox's coaching set up, with Scott filling the position of assistant manager, midfielder Andy Heald as player-coach and the recent appointment of Richard Ward as coaching assistant.

That means that two of our coaching staff played for the club in the Conference, and another in the Conference North - not a bad amount of experience to have around!

I always thought he had a brother that played at a similar time as well who had blonde floppy hair, but could be wrong - Chris Scott???

They weren't brothers, but we did have a Chris Scott (though I can't remember him staying for as long as is mentioned in that Wiki article)

Yeah that was another one - didn't he score a few important goals for us? Might have even paid a fee for him though I could be making that up.

Gary played at centre back on Tuesday night so could come in handy on the field as well.
