Danny takes over at Guy’s Meadow
Former Bellshill Athletic boss Danny Drew has taken charge and will look after matters until the end of the season.
Drew said: “I had a chat with John and he asked if I would help the team out. I know John well and he’s done a fantastic job here.

“Everything’s in place for Cumbernauld to be a huge success, I just want to be a part of helping them to achieve that.”
Drew got off to a flyer last Saturday with a 3-2 win over Ashfield at Saracen Park, a game originally scheduled for November 27.
He continued: “I took training last Wednesday but I was heavily relying on Junior [Gibson] for the team selection. I think we played well and deserved the result, it felt good to get the game out of the way.

Up next for United is Shotts Bon Accord at Guy’s Meadow on Saturday.
