NEW MANAGER : Wullie Gibson

Annan Athletic are delighted to announce Wullie Gibson as the new First Team Manager. 

After an impressive couple of seasons as a player at Galabank, Gibson has now impressed the board with his interview for the managers position. 

Wullie has previously managed Queen of the South before moving to Galabank to continue his playing career and already has great knowledge of the club and the current group of players. 

Chairman Russell Brown commented….
“It’s been a difficult couple of weeks for the club, and the fans alike, with the “highs” of remaining in Division One, quickly followed by the departure of the manager.

This was followed by the pressures of quickly recruiting a replacement and I want to thank my fellow directors at Galabank for their dedication in managing to select a new manager for next season . It was a quality field of applicants and we are delighted that Wullie Gibson has agreed to take up the post for the next two years. I know that Wullie relishes the challenge and he, like everyone else in the Galabank family, is now focusing on moving matters on as quickly as possible.”
