Hednesford Town name Gary Hayward their new permanent manager
Hednesford Town have announced the appointment of Gary Hayward as new first-team manager.
The former Eastwood Town and Worksop Town boss initially joined as No.2 to former Blues defender Nicky Eaden in December – helping guide the Pitmen away from danger and into mid-table in the Northern Premier.


He was then promoted to interim manager when Hednesford parted company with Eaden earlier this month.
Hayward has now been chosen to lead the Keys Park outfit into next season.
They go into the campaign on the back of a season-ending run of just one defeat in 10 matches.
