FORMER Magpies’ keeper Simon Evans is the club’s new reserve-team boss following the departure of Simon Browne to Wimborne Town.

Evans, who also kept goal for the likes of Weymouth and Hamworthy United, was joint manager of Dorchester’s under-18s alongside Martin Pashen.

Evans will continue to work closely with the under-18s as he looks to carry on the work done by Browne.

“We would like to wish Simon the very best of luck in his new role and also the very best of luck and our congratulations to Simon Browne, who was recently appointed as Wimborne Town’s first-team manager,” read a Dorchester statement.
