Mick Sullivan appointed as new South Park boss

Bostik South club South Park have appointed Mick Sullivan as their new first team manager.
Sullivan replaces Malcolm Porter, who left his job at King George’s Field at the end of the season after guiding The Sparks to a 13th place finish.
Following his appointment, the former Merstham and Leatherhead boss said: “Whilst I have thoroughly enjoyed my media work, and hope to continue to do it where time allows, since leaving Merstham last summer I have been looking out for the right opportunity to get back into a managerial role.
“South Park called me for a chat, and when they offered me the position there was no hesitation on my part. It’s a fabulous club- and I have enormous trust in the people behind the scenes there. I know that they buy into my vision of what the club can become, and that they will give me the time and the support to make it work.”
The new boss continued: “We’ve one more season on grass before we lay a 3G pitch, and that will be marvellous- but I want to improve the training facilities, and to see whether we can use the website and social media far more to get the club into the public eye.
“If you want to grow as a club you need to attract people from the local area through the turnstiles- and getting the media side of the club right is one of the ways in which you’ll do that. I’ve learned an awful lot from my time working in media over this last season, and I want to see whether I can bring that knowledge to South Park- and I now have a number of contacts I can ask for help and advice, too!”
