NEW BOSS: Steve Burr Appointed
Kidderminster Harriers are delighted to today confirm the appointment of Steve Burr as the club's new team manager on a two-and-a-half year contract.
The 50 year-old former Macclesfield Town striking legend is one of non-league football's most respected bosses following his work at Nuneaton Borough and Northwich Victoria, the latter with whom he made a lasting in the Blue Square Premier some seasons ago.
Currently assistant coach to the England C side, Burr has, for the last two-and-a-half seasons, been manager at Stalybridge Celtic where he has consistently been amongst the promotion contenders in the Blue Square North.
Harriers can confirm that they agreed a substantial compensation package with the Bower Fold outfit for Burr's services.
He becomes Kidderminster manager on a contract until the end of the 2011/12 season, and met with members of the media at Aggborough today after being introduced to his new squad.
The club can also confirm that caretaker manager John Finnigan has been offered, and accepted, the role as Assistant player-manager to Burr with immediate effect.
