The former Fulham, Brighton and Ipswich goalkeeper has huge experience as a player, ranging from Premier League to National League level. David was most recently the manager at Blyth Spartans.
He said: “I’ve been to The Citadel to watch Farsley before, I have friends who have played for Farsley in the past and I’m a local lad – I was born in Armley and I live in Farnley. I’m a local lad and I want to help. I’ve been coming here for a long time.
“I’ve spoken to the directors and I was impressed with what they are aiming to do with the club.”

David joins Farsley with a positive and competitive mindset, which he aims to pass on to players.
“It’s about being competitive. I don’t quit and I always keep going until the end. Football is unpredictable, we’re going to do everything we can to improve. Plans are in place for moving forward and I’m looking forward to helping the club get back to its former self.”
David has already spoken to the players and also met some of the board last night.
“It was great to meet some of the fantastic people connected to the club. Hearing from the women’s team, deaf team and the youth set up about what they have been doing during some unsettled times at the club was inspirational.”
David replaces Neil Redfearn, who left the club last week along with assistant Pav Singh. We’d like to thank both for their efforts.
Welcome to the Farsley family, David!
