A former Audenshaw School student has landed a coaching role with Blackpool Football Club.
Conrad Prendergast, 30, has left his role as Head of Academy at AFC Fylde to pursue his new role as the Under 18s coach with the Tangerines.
Conrad spent six years with the Coasters and made history, guiding the Under 18s to the FA Cup third round against Chelsea - the furthest in the club's history.
Following his move, Conrad tweeted:
