Llangefni’s new addition will be attack-minded

LLANGEFNI Town have added one of the club’s most influential players of the past 25 years to their management team for next season.

Gerallt Jones, a prolific scorer who played for successful Llangefni teams during the 1990s and 2000s, was also a vital part of the club’s Cymru Alliance championshipwinning side of 2006/07.

Jones will be part of a new-look coaching staff also comprising manager Chris Roberts, Jason Thomas and Liam Ewing.

Roberts said: “After narrowly missing out on promotion the last two seasons, I think a fresh approach was needed, starting with the management team here at Llangefni. I am really excited to announce Gerallt Jones (Gerry) will be joining us.

“Jason, Ger, Liam and myself have held numerous meetings and all have the same passion, vision and desire to take this team forward. I believe Gerallt brings a variety of things to our team: he is very vocal; his knowledge of local football is second to none; he is a great character who will fit in well with our dressing room; he has experience of playing at the highest level in an attacking role for the likes of Bangor City, Llangefni, Glantraeth and Gwalchmai.

“Gerallt will bring a more attack-minded approach to our team and, most of all, his commitment over the years has been brilliant.’’

From last season’s squad, Callum Mcminimee, James Saxon, Steve Kehoe, Dan Thomas, Matthew Jones, Craig Roberts, Jack Williams and Cai Powell-Roberts have already committed for the 2018/19 season.

Llangefni Town have also announced The Bull Hotel as their main shirt sponsor for the next two seasons. The club AGM is at the Bull on Monday, June 11, at 7pm. Anyone interested in the club can attend.
