AFC Liverpool unveil their new manager

May 3 2008 by Luke Traynor, Liverpool Echo



NEW non-league club AFC Liverpool today unveiled their new manager .

Former Southport and Bangor City centre back Derek Goulding was the man chosen to lead the amateur outfit.

The 45-year-old is a licensed coach who famously masterminded Burscough FC’s giantkilling win over Gillingham in the 2005 FA Cup.

He told the ECHO: “I am delighted to be the first ever manager of AFC Liverpool as this is a club with enormous potential.

“I have been a Liverpool fan all of my life and I can't wait to build this team.

“I have been successful as a player and as a manager and I am looking forward to bringing that approach to AFC Liverpool.”

Club spokesman Alun Parry said: “Derek is a very experienced coach and manager.

“He has managed at a level three leagues above us and outwitted Football League clubs.

“In non-league terms, this is a coup equivalent to a League Two side appointing the likes of Martin O'Neill or Harry Redknapp.”

Goulding has well-established contacts on the non-league scene and is promising to attract at least one other A Licensed coach to his staff.

He will be at the player trials at Buckley Hill Playing Fields, in Buckley Hill Lane, Bootle, on Bank Holiday Monday.

The team was set up for fans fed-up with rising Premiership ticket prices.

So far around 1,000 people have pledged cash to the project.

AFC Liverpool are close to sealing a place in the Vodkat League after getting the non-league approval a few weeks ago.

The club hopes to have youth teams, a women's team, junior girls teams and a disability team too.

AFC Liverpool will be run as an Industrial & Provident Society.
