Alan Dowson is back in football with Dartford as he was tonight announced as the club’s new manager.

Dowson is now charged with taking the club up and will begin building a squad to attack promotion.

The Darts’ statement read: “We are delighted to announce that we have appointed Alan Dowson as our new manager.
