Lancing FC are delighted to announce the appointment of Sam Morgan as the new first team manager. Sam has previously been manager at Epsom & Ewell and Sutton Common Rovers, who he took to their highest ever position last season, as well as Assistant Manager at Haywards Heath.

Sam said ‘I’m delighted to be on board and want to thank Barry and the committee members for putting their trust in me to help guide the club to the position it deserves. Having witnessed first-hand, the fans are great and looking forward to meeting a few more of the blue and yellow army’.

‘The hard work begins now and will see the changes that are necessary to make sure we change our fortunes whilst putting in an identity I believe in’.

Chairman Barry Sutton added ‘We are delighted to have Sam on board. We were very lucky to have a number of excellent applicants for the role, but Sam has the experience, contacts and ability that we need to give us the best chance of pulling us out of the relegation zone. The committee and I feel as though Sam has the right qualities to turn performances into points and I hope this appointment will mark an upturn in fortune for us and gets this great club back to where it belongs.’

Sam will be joined by Harrison Williams who has previously been at Redhill, South Park and Loxwood and who brings a great knowledge of the game. We look forward to the Yellow and Blue army turning up in force to get behind Sam and his team on Saturday.
