Bamber Bridge have confirmed that Jamie Milligan has stepped down as first-team manager, bringing an end to almost seven years in charge at IronGate.
Milligan, who took over in December 2019, explained that he felt he had taken the club as far as he could and that now was the right time to step aside.
His association with Bamber Bridge stretches back much further, having represented the club as a player, coach and manager. He was part of the promotion-winning side in 2017/18 and scored the opening goal in their 2-1 victory over Grantham Town in the 2017 League Cup Final.
One of his greatest achievements as manager came during the 2022/23 season, when he guided Brig to third place in the Northern Premier League Premier Division, their highest league finish since the 1990s.
