King’s Lynn Town Football Club can confirm the appointment of Paul Caddis as the club’s new Head Coach.
This season has been a difficult one for the club and we recognise that recent results have left us in a challenging position as we approach the final stretch of the campaign.
With twelve matches remaining, our focus is very clear: to do everything possible to secure our place in the National League North.
The Board has therefore made the decision to bring in Paul Caddis to lead the first team for the remainder of the season.
The 37-year-old takes charge of first-team affairs at The Walks with preparations already underway for Saturday’s visit of Marine.
Caddis enjoyed a long playing career with clubs including Birmingham City before moving into management with Hereford FC in the National League North, where he developed a reputation for building competitive and well-organised teams.
He led Hereford to their highest ever points totals since their reformation in successive National League North seasons.
Chief Executive Bal Srai said:
“We know this has been a frustrating season for our supporters and we fully understand the strength of feeling around recent results.
Right now our focus is very simple: The remaining matches and securing the results we need.
Paul brings energy, character and experience of this division, and we believe he is the right person to guide the team through this period.
The club will also continue to work on strengthening the squad where possible as we push for the strongest finish we can achieve this season.”
Paul will take charge of first-team training immediately as preparations continue for Saturday’s fixture.
The final weeks of the season will require everyone connected with the club to pull together.
We ask our supporters to continue getting behind the players and the new management team as we fight for every point over the remaining matches.
