Truro City chairman Kevin Heaney has confirmed that Lee Hodges has verbally agreed a new two-year contract to stay with Truro City.
The former Torquay player has tranformed Truro from a mid-table team in the Premier Division to champions in just over eighteen months and is rapidly making a name for himself in the management business.
It will have no doubt attracted the attentions of clubs higher up than Truro in non-League football, but Kevin Heaney is confident that Lee will stay at City and achieve further success.
"Lee has proved a great manager, he said: "Sometimes in life people take to a role like a hand into a glove, and he has impressed as an absolute natural for it. His players would walk through walls for him. Lee is easily the best manager I have worked with. There is a calmness about him, but he also has a steeliness which ensures that the players fully respect him and know exactly where they stand with him, which is vitally important."
"He is a genuinely outstanding young manager and I firmly believe he is the man who can take us into the Football League. He has verbally agreed a new two-year contract with Truro City and as far as I am aware all the squad have also indicated that they want to stay. The squad for next season will be entirely a matter for Lee, but I don’t think there’s any doubt that we certainly have the nucleus of a squad that will be more than capable of holding its own at the next level."
