Former Glentoran manager Warren Feeney has been announced as the new boss of National League side Weymouth.

Weymouth are bottom of the National League South with just two wins and six draws from 20 matches.

Feeney, who won 46 caps for Northern Ireland as a player, previously managed in the National League with Welling United in 2022.

He then moved to Irish Premiership side Glentoran the following year but left his role after nine months in March.

The 43-year-old has also managed Linfield and Ards in his native Northern Ireland as well as Newport County and Bulgarian side Pirin Blagoevgrad.

Weymouth chairman Paul Maitland said the club’s board were “overwhelmingly in favour” of appointing Feeney, who was selected from six interviewed candidates.

“We are excited to have him join us,” he added.

“Our primary mission is to remain in the National League South, and the board will support Warren in every possible way to achieve this goal.

“Looking beyond survival, our medium-term objective is for Weymouth Football Club to once again compete for league titles and push for promotion.”
