FORMER Grimsby, Lincoln and Mansfield striker Nathan Arnold has taken over as manager of Newark Town.
Arnold, 33, who also played for Cambridge United, Alfreton, Hyde and Altrincham and managed Melton Town and Bourne Town, who he left in May, replaces Luke Parsons at the Central Midlands North outfit.
His appointment is being supported by Newark-based company Gusto Group, whose chairman Steff Wright, a former Lincoln City chairman, said: “This is the perfect time for our supporters and the local community as a whole, to get behind the lads.”
