FC Isle of Man is delighted to announce the appointment of Lawrence Looney as a new director on the club’s board.
Lawrence, who recently stepped down as chairman of Altrincham FC after seven successful years, brings a wealth of experience and a proven track record in football strategy and sustainability.
Vice-chairman Lee Dixon expressed his enthusiasm for the appointment, stating: “We’ve had numerous conversations, and it’s an easy call to make.
“Lawrence has agreed to join the board and come into the club and he’s going to be a fantastic asset to help guide us through, hopefully, the next phase for the club.”
Lawrence arrival marks a pivotal moment for FC Isle of Man as the club aims to transition from short-term challenges to long-term planning.
Lee added: “We recognise that we need to go to the next phase, to build a strategy that will make us more sustainable, where we can plan three, five, ten years ahead.”
While stepping away from from his previous club, but wanting to remain in football, Lawrence said that the chance to do that and support his home club in our plans to grow is an exciting next step for him to take.
He said: “My job is to do a full review, take on as much information as possible, and build out a three-year plan.”
“The board is absolutely committed to giving me that support, and hopefully, we’ll have a clear plan for what we’re going to be like in three years, five years, and beyond.”
