The Maltby Main management team – Mark Askwith, Scott Mason and John Crossland

Mark Askwith is back at Maltby Main as part of the new look management team.

Askwith who was a member of Spencer Fearn’s backroom team for 18 months, will be joint manager with Scott Mason. John Crossland will be their assistant.

The trio replace Jordan Hall and his management team following their departure from Muglet Lane earlier this week.

A club statement said: “Mark has a lot of knowledge of the club and was assistant for all of the 2015/16 season and the first half of last season so is well suited to return.

”It’s brilliant he agreed to come back after discussions.

“Scott and John are very successful in the local Sunday league particularly with The Joker over the last few years, having won every trophy available including the very prestigious Hallamshire Sunday Cup.

“They did an unprecedented quadruple this season, winning a fifth trophy at the weekend by beating the Sunday league champions from Humberside/East Yorkshire, 1-0.

“They know many local players and past Main players who also played for them on Sundays and we welcome that as part of our club alongside the new guys from further afield.

“We also welcome the fact they’ve been so keen to make a step up to our level and make up the team with Mark Askwith.

“After we approached them to join up when the position became vacant; and think it’s a good opportunity for them and us to go forward again now.”
