Phoenix announce McMahon as new Boss

Phoenix Sports have announced Keith McMahon as their new First Team Manager.

Keith replaces Steve O’Boyle, who departed on May 9th.

McMahon spent some time at Mayplace working with O’Boyle last season, so will be in familiar surroundings – especially as he spends lots of social time at the club.

Keith previously spent five years – from May 2015 to June 2020 – in charge just around the corner at VCD Athletic. Prior to his time at Oakwood he managed Thamesmead Town, and indeed was a big part of the club for eleven years, steering them to promotion from the Kent League and then to another promotion to the Isthmian Premier Division, his side famously winning a penalty shootout over Maldon & Tiptree in the 2012-13 North Division Playoff Final.

After leaving Vickers he spent time a short time in charge of Whitstable Town.
