Hunger Games To Restart With Robinson At Crusaders’ Helm

New Hungerford Town manager Danny Robinson says he has big shoes to fill.

The Crusaders have announced the appointment of the 34-year-old as the man to take them forward.

He replaces Ian Herring, who stepped aside earlier this month at the National League South club.

Robinson says he has a job on to replicate what managers of the past have achieved.

He said: “It’s been a manic 24 hours but I am delighted to be getting down to work.

“I am absolutely delighted to join such a list of managers like Alan Clark, Bobby Wilkinson and Ian Herring in managing this great club.

“This will be tough but together we can achieve what we put our minds to.”

Chairman Patrick Chambers thinks Hungerford have the right man.

“Danny made the short list after my first conversation with him and his ambition and enthusiasm convinced me he was the right man for the job,” he said.

“I am really looking forward to working with him and am confident that he is a great fit for our club.

“Giving a young and upcoming manager a chance is also something that sits well with Hungerford Town and its policy of backing young players at this level.

“He is aware of the task ahead of us and isn’t phased by the clubs financial limitations.”
