Club Captain steps up following resignation of Michael Ellison

Widnes Football Club is pleased to confirm the appointment of Club Captain Steven Irwin as Interim First Team Manager.

Ste steps up after enjoying two-and-half successful years as a senior player - including two season as skipper - under Michael Ellison, who resigned late last week.

The 34-year-old is approaching 100 games for the club as a player, earning Manager’s Player of the Season last term as we lifted the Northern Premier League West title and secured promotion to Step 3.

The Club will continue to review the role, but with planning for pre-season already underway, the interim appointment provides stability during an important period for the team as we prepare for the step up to the Northern Premier League Premier Division.
