Former Athlone Town player Anthony Hayes is ready to “give everything” as caretaker boss of League One side Charlton Athletic.
The Athlone native will take charge of the first-team in Wednesday night's FA Cup second round replay at Stockport County, alongside Under-18 coach Jason Pearce and goalkeeping coach Glyn Shimell.
It’s the latest step in the rise of the highly-rated coach. Only last summer he was promoted to the first-team coaching staff, a year after he was named head-coach of the Under-23 side.
