Wexford FC appoint James Keddy as manager

James Keddy is the new Wexford FC boss and succeeds Ian Ryan on a multi-year deal.

A three-time title winner as a player with Drogheda United, Shelbourne and Derry City, he was recently assistant manager at Longford Town and Bray Wanderers before that.

Keddy was also manager of Bluebell United in the Leinster Senior League and spent three years as Director of Football at Home Farm.

Wexford were in the market for a new manager after Ryan left before being appointed ‘head coach’ at Bray this week.

Keddy said: “I’m looking forward to assembling a squad that is young, competitive and wants to improve on last year’s position.”

And Wexford said: “We’re delighted to have appointed a manager with his experience of youth development as well as the highest levels of the League of Ireland.

“We’re eager to improve on last year's league finish.”
