26 Nov 2019 By James Gordon

Ashton United have parted company with manager Jody Banim.

Banim, 41, made his name as a prolific goalscorer and became joint manager of the Robins in September 2016.

He led the club to promotion to National League North in 2017/18, but they made an immediate return to the NPL.

They have managed just four wins from 14 league games this season and Banim's last game in charge was a 4-0 home defeat to Nantwich Town on Saturday.

A club statement said: "The club wishes to place on record our thanks to Jody for his commitment and work over the past few years, both as a player and manager, especially in achieving promotion to The National League North.

"We wish him all the very best for the future."
