HILLINGDON Borough FC have appointed Gary Pitt as their new first-team manager.

He is the club's 25th first-team manager since the club was reformed 35 years ago. 

Gary is no stranger to non-league and local football, having played for North Greenford United before embarking on a coaching career that has taken him from Potters Bar to Edgware and on to QPR in a variety of roles.

As a UEFA B licensed coach, his experience should be invaluable as Borough seek to improve on an impressive last season.

Joining as his assistant is Dave Roberts.
