Ballymena United Confirm Jim Ervin As New Manager
Ballymena United have confirmed their former player and captain Jim Ervin as their new manager.
Ervin succeeds David Jeffrey who left the club by mutual consent in the wake of the club's 4-0 defeat by Crusaders in the Irish Cup final.
Ervin, who made 277 appearances in eight seasons for Ballymena as a player will be joined by Stefan Seaton as the club's assistant manager. He becomes the 34th manager in the club's history.

New manager Ervin hopes to improve on the club's 9th place finish when he leads the team into the 23/24 Irish Premiership campaign.
