Ex-Greens boss Julian McCalmon joins touchline team at North Leigh

Former boss Julian McCalmon has joined the management team at less than a week after stepping down at their BetVictor rivals.
Along with coach Joe Davies, McCalmon, pictured, resigned from his post at Yarnton Road last Thursday night for ‘personal circumstances' and was replaced by the Greens 24 hours later with former manager Ben Sadler.


According to a Millers statement, manager Craig Dore was keen to snap up former  Abingdon Town boss McCalmon for his “coaching excellence and knowledge” of the Southern League.
The statement read: “Jules has been a massive part of Kidlington's recent history starting as their assistant manager and helping the side win the Hellenic Premier Division title in 2016.
“Promotion to the saw them play at step 4 for the first time in the club's 110-year history.
“He then took over as first team manager and saw the club finished a very respectable 12th in their first season. He has since been in charge of over 150 matches over the last four seasons for the Oxfordshire side.”
North Leigh chairman Ed Martin released a statement on Wednesday telling fans he believes the club is “moving in the right direction and has a very bright future ahead of it” after a tough few years at the Eynsham Hall Park Sports Ground.
