Oakwood have named Pease Pottage boss Bob Pyle as their new manager.

Pyle, who was No.2 at Tinsley Lane before switching to Pease Pottage in September, replaces Mark Dunk who resigned last Thursday.

Coach Neil Blackwell took charge of Oakwood's 5-0 win at Westfield on Saturday with Pyle assuming the reigns for next Saturday's trip to Haywards Heath.

Chairman Stuart Lovegrove said: "It was always our intention to let Bob have sole charge of team affairs but the original idea was to ease him in gently under Mark Dunk as we felt Mark's experience would rub off on Bob and he may pull in one or two players.

"He did but things didn't quite work out so Bob left on good terms to help out Pottage, with one eye on returning to us some time in the future. It has just worked out for him and us sooner than we thought."
