Diamonds Appoint New Manager

Pitching In Southern League Premier Division Central club AFC Rushden & Diamonds have appointed the experienced Chris Nunn as their new manager.

Nunn has a wealth of experience, having previously managed Biggleswade Town and guiding the Waders to promotion to Step 3.

Whilst in Step 4, Nunn led his team to the play-offs in 2010/11 and 2012/13, proving victorious the second time of asking, as well as adding the silverware of the Bedfordshire Senior Cup to his list of achievements which was then retained the season after.

Success continued the season after as his side reached the FA Cup First Round proper, overcoming Wingate & Finchley, Chelmsford City, Leatherhead and Canvey Island.

After being out of the game for a couple of years, Nunn took over as boss of Southern Division One Central side Kempston Rovers in May 2022 following the departure of Scott Dash

Following the news, assistant manager Ash Fuller will be placed in permanent charge of Kempston with immediate effect.

Fuller previously made 165 appearances for the club between the years of 2014-2018, finding the net 48 times and was a key part of the UCL double winning side in 2015/16.
