Speaking to Football in Berkshire, he said: “As young managers you want to work with people you trust, with people who have the same ideas on football as you. Geoff was an automatic choice. We love working with each other.

“During our time at Bracknell, as players and manager, we were very close. For me and Withs, Geoff was someone we really wanted.

“We’ve also got Tony Perry in, he’s worked with Chris Grace for years and they have a close relationship.”

The news of Warner’s arrival at Hill Farm Lane was announced on the Moles website on Wednesday morning. You can read more about the appointment here.
