BRIGHOUSE Town have announced that Zeph Thomas has been appointed as Player/Coach at the club.

Thomas, who is working towards his coaching badges, has been coaching Brighouse Town's first team in recent weeks, both in training and on match days and the club have said that the call up is "fully merited".

The newly appointed Brighouse coach has previously worked and coached at junior level, but he has now made the decision to make the step up.

Thomas will be hoping to cap off a great week with Brighouse today, as they chase victory at home to Stocksbridge Park (3:00 pm).
