I loved his infectious enthusiasm and believe he will do well for us. The hard work starts now!" Angelo Harrop said: "I see this as a fantastic opportunity and one I will absolutely relish. The fans can be assured that they will have the hardest working manager in the league. I would like to thank my former club AFC Sudbury for allowing me to embark on this journey and our memories shared through the season and the FA cup will live with me forever." The new Iron boss hopes to bring his first signing to the Club this week and will be chatting to members of last season's squad.
