Former Bristol City favourite Cole Skuse has taken his first steps into management after he was appointed the new head coach of Bury Town.
Skuse, 37, called time on his playing career at the end of this season following a two-year stint with Colchester. Born in Yate, the former midfielder came through the academy at City and went on to make 307 appearances for the Robins before leaving for Ipswich Town in 2013.
He was part of the City side that earned promotion from League One in the 2006/07 campaign and won the club's Player of the Season following the 2009/10 season under former manager Gary Johnson. Skuse was handed his City debut by then player/manager Brian Tinnion in 2005.
