Dartford have today confirmed the appointment of Adrian Pennock as the Club’s new first team manager.

The former Welling and Gillingham boss will take charge of his first game tomorrow, at home to high-flying Worthing. He has also managed at Forest Green Rovers, Barrow and Brunei DPMM FC. 

His most fruitful spell came at Brunei, where he won the Singaporean League in 2018/19. Forest Green also saw relative success for Pennock, with a 1.73 points per game average from 124 matches.

The Club’s statement read: “His passion and vision for the future of Dartford Football Club was most evident and impressed us greatly.” 

Pennock faces the tough task of keeping the Darts in the National League South this season, but seems to have a long-term idea for the Club, too.
