Former player Dean Barker has returned Cockfosters as manager, succeeding Mark Mezen as boss of the Spartan South Midlands Premier Division side.

Barker will be assisted by Gary Simmonds, who will hold the post of player/assistant manager.

The pair will be joined by new first team coach Finlay Johnson and a full time physio.

He returns to Cockfosters where he holds the record for most goals scored in one season.

Fosters are still looking to fill the position of reserve team manager and coach. Anyone interested in the role should contact Cockfosters Football Club.
