JOHN POTTER has been confirmed as the new manager of Kelty Hearts.
Following strong rumours and talks, the ex-Dunfermline manager and most recently Queens Park coach, has been appointed as the replacement for Kevin Thomson who departed Kelty after winning the League Two title.
The ex-Hibs coach moves from a side newly promoted to the Championship to a side newly promoted to League One, as he aims to push forward with a team in form at New Central Park.
The club confirmed the appointment today with the message: “Kelty Hearts FC are delighted to announce the appointment of our new First Team Manager, John Potter!
“John, who played for Celtic, St Mirren, Clyde and Dunfermline as a player, joins the club with an impressive coaching pedigree.
