Heath Excited By Project On Offer At New Club Alfreton

It was announced on Tuesday Heath would take over the Vanarama National League North side, writes Tom Feaheny.

Heath who has previously managed both North Ferriby United and FC Halifax Town to promotion is looking forward to the near future.

He said: “Alfreton has always been a good club, I’ve known Wayne for a long time and there has always been a good feel to Alfreton when I’ve brought teams here.

"It’s very well run and the club has been successful in the past when they were in the Conference and it’s an exciting project here.”

“There was big expectations last season for the Club and as an outsider looking in last season.

I thought Alfreton should have been higher up the table but It’s important for us to prepare during the summer, pre-season is paramount at any football club and you can imagine it’s hectic now.”

Heath said one thing he can promise is commitment from his players.

"My teams always give 100% and are always hard-working. I am really pleased to be here and can’t wait to get started.”
