Gibson extends Annan contract

ANNAN Athletic manager Wullie Gibson has extended his contract at Galabank. He has signed a contract extension that will keep him at the club until summer 2028.

Gibson said: “I’m delighted to extend my contract here for the next two and a half years. “Discussions started with the club several weeks ago, and right from the start it was something we both wanted to do. That allowed me to go ahead and get key players signed up for next season while we kept discussing the finer details of the contract. "The club have faced some tough times over the past year, but we’ve worked extremely hard together on and off the field to improve the club and put the club in a better position. I’ve loved every minute here, both as a player and now as player/manager. "This season there’s still a lot to play for and hopefully we can do enough to make the playoffs. We have a good core of players signed up for next season, between now and the summer the hard work will continue as I look to add to that. "Every player and manager wants to be successful and win things, I’m no different. I’ve already won promotion as a player here and I’ll continue to work as hard as possible to hopefully achieve that as manager as well. "Hopefully we can go to Stirling tonight and put in a good performance and get a positive result.”
