Leamington FC appoint local lad Scott Easterlow as their new manager
Leamington FC have tonight (Wednesday March 11) announced the appointment of Scott Easterlow as their new first team manager.
Scott, who is Leamington born and bred and a former North Leamington School pupil, joins the Brakes from local rivals Racing Club Warwick, where he has managed over 300 games, guiding the club to two promotions as well as reaching a Birmingham Senior Cup Final in that time.
He will be supported by Callum Ingram as Assistant Manager and Gary Ingram as First Team Coach - both UEFA B Licensed Coaches.
On his appointment, Scott said “I’m delighted to be appointed as manager at Leamington.
"I’m looking forward to the challenge ahead, hopefully we are able to achieve lots of success together.”
The board of directors felt a change in direction was needed to take the club into the post-Paul Holleran era and look forward to supporting Scott in the remaining weeks of the season as he builds for the 2026/27 campaign.
Paul Holleran announced his resignation from his role as Leamington FC manager on January 1 this year after being in the job for 5,893 days (more than 16 years) and 789 games.
A club spokesman said the club "massively thanks” Chris Knott and Lewis Marston for taking over from Paul “in difficult circumstances”.
He added: “Their efforts have been hugely appreciated”.
Scott and his management team will take training tomorrow night (Thursday March 12) and their first game in charge will be at Darlington on Saturday (March 14), with their first home game being next Tuesday (March 17) against Buxton.
