Hartlepool United has announced their new management team, featuring veteran Lennie Lawrence alongside the newly appointed head coach Anthony Limbrick. Limbrick, previously the manager at Woking, joins the team weeks after Pools ended their association with Darren Sarll. Gavin Skelton has taken on the role of first team coach and will receive guidance from Lawrence, who is among the select group of managers with over 1,000 matches of experience in the dugout.
The 76-year-old has secured five points from the three matches since resuming his role on an interim basis. “It’s been a very thorough and professional process that the Board has conducted, and it’s a decision we’re very excited about,”the ex-manager of Charlton and Middlesbrough mentioned on the club’s website. A lot went into it and one of the priorities was a long-term plan, and the idea is to offer my experience where possible to develop the rest of the team. We now have a lot of depth within our coaching staff and each member holds different qualities which we’ll be able to lean on during the course of the season.”
A spokesperson for Pools stated: “We are really pleased to confirm our new management team following an extensive review and process. Lennie has an incredible track record in management as well as with his mentorship roles of coaches and managers. He’s also proven on multiple caretaker occasions at Hartlepool United his ability and desire to step up and hold the manager position, which has been evident in his recent results and a reformed style of play. As Board we were keen to see the trajectory and senior stewardship under Lennie continue, and with Anthony and Gavin we have also secured two outstanding pro licence technical coaches who are highly regarded within the game. We believe their complementary attributes and desire to step up in due course will fit well with Lennie, to give the Club both the best opportunity in the immediate short term this season whilst also planning longer term."
