DAISY Hill FC's management duo of Brian Richardson and Brian Smith have stepped down at New Sirs.

Smith says: "Brian and I have enjoyed our time on the footballing side at Daisy Hill and we're leaving the club in a very healthy position in that regard.

"We have developed a group of younger players with real potential to improve and it would be nice to see the club move forward over the coming years."

Daisy Hill finished ninth in the league, their highest ever, scored their best-ever points total of 60 and scored most goals in a season.
