Brentwood Town FC are delighted to announce the appointment of their new First Team Manager, Keith Rowland.

Keith has had a fantastic professional career playing for West Ham, QPR and Bournemouth to name but a few. Rowland also gained 19 international caps for Northern Ireland.

Keith started his coaching career at Aveley, guiding them in to the play offs in the Isthmian Premier League. He then went to Braintree Town and became assistant manager to Alan Devonshire. Following that Keith joined Wingate & Finchley in the Isthmian Premier League and had 3 successful seasons, which had Rowland bring two record high league finishes to the club. He then had a second spell at Aveley and built the team that won back to back promotions to the National South.

Keith will take over immediately and will take charge for Saturday’s home game against Heybridge Swifts.
