Oxford City boss Mike Ford has appointed former Didcot Town manager Stuart Peace as his assistant at Court Place Farm.
Peace, who resigned from the Railwaymen in January after seven years in charge, takes over from Dougie Graham, who has left the club.
As well as masterminding their FA Vase victory in 2005, Peace also steered Didcot to promotion from the Hellenic League to the Southern League Premier Division.
“Stuart brings a wealth of experience, having managed Didcot to unparalleled success in his seven years in charge,” said Ford.
“He will have a slightly different role to the one that Dougie did, but I have every faith the partnership will be a success.”
Meanwhile, Didcot chairman John Bailey says the club hope to appoint a new manager next week.
It follows the departure last month of Peace’s replacement at the Npower Loop Meadow Stadium, Ady Williams, who left to pursue a career in the media.
