There will be an experienced and much-loved figure back in the Southern League for the 2026/27 season after Halesowen Town appointed Paul Holleran as assistant manager.
The 55 year-old has previously managed the Premier Central club between 2004 and 2006 before going on to guide Rushall Olympic to promotion against-the-odds and then spend almost 17 years in charge of Leamington, during which time he took the club to Step 2 amidst almost 800 games at the helm.
“The club has always been special to me,” Holleran told his club media. “I’m delighted to be back associated with the Yeltz.
“Russ and I have known each other for a long time. We have had a couple of chats in recent years and always wanted to work together, and after a few months away from the game, I feel in a position where I’m ready for this next chapter in my football life.
“I had time to think about it and now I’ve found a role that suits me. I’m hoping my knowledge from over the years can help Russ, the team, and the Chairman, because the club have had two good seasons at this level and are now ready to push on.
“There is always a lot to do at this time of year. Russ and I are already working hard already to get us ready for the new season. It’s a different role for me, but I’m delighted to get started and help the club out.”
