GRIMSBY APPOINT JOLLY


03/03/18


Grimsby have appointed Michael Jolley as their new manager on a rolling contract.

Jolley replaces Russell Slade, who was sacked by the Mariners following their 3-0 defeat at Crawley last month.

That loss extended Town's winless run to 12 matches and ended Slade's second spell in charge of the club.

Jolley - who has coached at Burnley, Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace - joins with the Mariners six points above the Sky Bet League Two relegation zone.

His last managerial role was at AFC Eskilstuna in Sweden and is set to take charge of his first Grimsby game on Saturday at Carlisle.
