Hereford FC have this morning confirmed that Steve Jenkins has joined the club as assistant manager for the coming season.
Since his last spell with the Bulls in the 2013/14, he has had two successful seasons with Merthyr Town, firstly securing promotion from the Southern League Division 1 South and West, and more recently the Southern League Red Insure Cup, which the club hadn't won in more than 60 years.

Speaking about the appointment, manager Pete Beadle told the official site:
“The departure of Matt Bishop obviously left a huge hole to fill. There was only really one person who I thought could fill his shoes, and that is Jenks”.
“The role of Assistant Manager is a vital cog in a football team. Matt played a huge part in our success this season, but I am confident that Steve has exactly what it takes to continue the great work.”
“I’ve known Jenks for some time now, we are very close, and I can’t wait to start working with him again as we plan for next season.
“Jenks brings with him a great attitude, and also a fantastic knowledge of the game. I’m delighted that he has accepted the offer to return to Edgar Street.”
Welcome back Jenks.
