O'Kelly Departs

Walsall assistant manager and coach Richard O'Kelly has left The Bescot Stadium, to take charge of League Two struggler's Hereford United, who today removed manager Jamie Pitman from his position, just two days after their first home win since October. Pitman has agreed to remain at the club as a coach.

Hereford are two points the relegation zone and have registered just one win in ten games.

O'Kelly made over 200 appearances as a Saddler in the 70's and 80's and returned to the club in November last year on a voluntarily basis.
