New Nomads boss Disney dreams of European return
Connah's Quay Nomads have appointed long-serving player and captain John Disney as their new manager. The defender announced his retirement from playing following Nomads' 2-1 defeat by The New Saints in the Welsh Cup final earlier this month. But the 33-year-old, who re-joined Nomads for his second spell in 2018, hinted he would be staying on with the club in some capacity. Disney succeeds Billy Paynter who was sacked in April with two games of the Cymru Premier season remaining. "We fell short and our remit for this season is to make sure we get back into Europe and get the club back where it belongs," Disney said. "I'm the person the club has chosen to take that forward and I'm really appreciative of that and really looking forward to it."
