Tadley Calleva announce new first-team management

Cherry Red Records Combined Counties League Premier Division North Tadley Calleva have announced a new first-team management partnership following the departure of Gareth Thomas in September.

Joe Lawler and Ben Dillon have been confirmed as Tadley’s new joint management team in a club statement on Twitter: “The club is delighted to announce that, after interviewing a number of quality candidates, Joe Lawler and Ben Dillon have been appointed as joint first team managers.

“Joe and Ben have the necessary experience and a proven track record of managing in the Combined Counties Football League.

“Previous clubs include Hartley Wintney, Badshot Lea and more recently with Cove FC. They were clear with their plan for taking the club forward from our current position and with their longer-term vision for the future.

“They will also be announcing additional coaching staff in due course, but in the meantime please join us in welcoming them both to the club.”

Tadley are currently bottom of the division after 10 games with two points amassed and the new managers will undoubtedly look toward Saturday’s fixture with CB Hounslow United as an opportunity to add to that tally.
