Broxburn Athletic will head into 2023 without a manager after Chris Townsley resigned from his role in the wake of this afternoon’s 5-1 home loss to Linlithgow Rose.
Townsley, who initially joined the club as a player in 2017, had been in the role for close to three years having taken over from Brian McNaughton in 2020.
But he elected to step away from the gig after their loss in the Union Canal derby with his assistant Scott McNaughton - son of Brian - set to take on a caretaker role until a permanent successor is appointed.
