Foyle appointed as Vics boss

Former York City boss replaces Simpson

Northwich Victoria have appointed former York City boss Martin Foyle as their new manager.

Foyle joins the Premier Division side as part of the management team, which includes former Aston Villa defender Alan Wright.

Speaking to the club website, chairman Jim Rushe stated, "I'm very pleased to have someone of such a high calibre that has worked in non-league football."

In his playing career, Foyle played for a number of league clubs including Southampton and Port Vale where he made almost 300 appearances.

He was to later manage the Valiants for three seasons but has more recently managed York City - taking them to the Conference Premier playoffs in 2010.

Foyle replaces Paul Simpson, who managed the side for a month following the departure of Andy Preece at the end of January.
