MOTORS FEELS LIKE HOLMES!

Now he’s doing for real at Vauxhall Motors – and it turns out he’s pretty good.

Before kick-off in yesterday’s visit of Avro, the Motormen occupied top spot in the Northern Premier League’s West Division after winning 11 of their first 15 matches.

“I felt ready,” Holmes told The NLP. “I’d been coaching for a long time, kids at first and then adults, and I was getting to a point where I was questioning managers I was playing for.”

The 35-year-old took charge for the first time last October with the team third-bottom in the table following defeats in six of their opening ten games.

After leading the Ellesmere Port-based outfit to two promotions since rejoining the National League System in 2018, popular boss Mick Mcgraa had left for Bootle and the campaign needed a reset.
