Many Minds One Heart – A Chelmsford City FC Story
Chelmsford City FC have announced the hiring of unknown American JP Gainza as Manager today. The hiring comes as a shock to everyone in England and no one has been able to tell us who exactly this man is. However, Chelmsford Chairman Mansell Wallace seems very keen that Gainza is the man to take Chelmsford to the next level. “JP is someone who I feel can bring the work and tactics to this club in order for us to really exceed. I have seen him coach the youth ranks in the United States and am very excited to be working with him.”
The Clarets finished 3rd last year in the Blue Square South and are looking to improve upon a very good season.
