Chasetown FC have appointed Roger Lucas as their new commercial director.

With spells at Solihull Borough, Bilston Town, Halesowen Town, Stourbridge and Rushall Olympic on his CV, the appointment has delighted Scholars chief executive Mick Joiner.

He said:

“Over the past few weeks both Charlie Blakemore and I have been holding meetings with a new commercial director to work alongside Steve Maden and to also fall in line with the club’s five year business plan.

“We are please to announce that we have appointed Roger Lucas. Steve was worked very well in the role, and he and Roger will form an excellent commercial team taking the club forward.

“Charlie has known Roger for several years and in his opinion this is a great appointment for both on and off the pitch in securing sponsorship deals for our club.”
