BRIAN SMITH has been appointed as joint manager at Atherton Colls.
The former professional with Bolton, Blackpool and Bournemouth, will work alongside Tommy Harrison.
He recently stepped down as Pennington FC chairman and has been looking at players for ex-Atherton LR boss Gerry Luczka.
His appointment follows on the news that Colls have retained their NorthWest Counties Division One status.
"We now hope to attract the quality players needed to to be a major player in a strong league," said Smith.
"I feel fortunate to be joining a club with unlimited potential."
