Fell quits Rammy for Lancaster job

Fell has recently re-located back to the city where he attended university and lived previously for five years, and resigned from the EVO-STIK West Division side on Tuesday night to take up the role.

He said: "I'm delighted to be joining Lancaster City Football Club, after spending time with the board it is clear that the ambition and direction of the club match that of my own.

“It's a club with great history and I'm excited to be leading us into our next chapter, whilst there is clearly much work to be done in terms of improving current league position, we have a good squad in place who I'm looking forward to working with.

“It's a fresh start for the club and an opportunity for the people of Lancaster to come out in force this weekend to get behind the lads when we host Basford at Giant Axe.”

Lancaster have had a difficult start to the season, and currently sit bottom of the EVO-STIK Premier Division, having managed just one win and two draws from their 11 games so far.

Dolly Blues chairman, Stuart Houghton, said: “I am extremely pleased to welcome a manager with the passion and experience Mark possesses. He and his assistant Graham Lancashire bring a different dimension to a very challenging and highly competitive league.”
