MICHAEL RENWICK (Manager)
Michael began his football career at boys club Hutchison Vale at the age of 15. He was signed as an apprentice a year later by Hibs before being offered professional terms a short while later. He spent 8 years at Easter Road and played under the likes of Alex Miller and current Scotland manager Alex McCleish. He played less than 50 games in those 8 years, before moving on to Ayr United in May 2000.
Reports suggest he didn't really settle at Somerset Park, he had two loans spells at Cowden and Morton during his Ayr career. He must have impressed at Central Park as Cowden signed him from Ayr for the following season. His records show he was out of football for two seasons (03/04 and 04/05). He signed for Stenny in May 05 and played 26 games in the 05/06 season before taking up a coaching post under Mixu Paatelainen at Cowden last year.
He was highly rated at Cowden and is seen as a bit of a nice guy too. He certainly seems to have lots of experience at every level of the game. And he has worked under some good managers in McLeish, Miller and more recently Paatelainen. He came to Berwick highly recommended from people in football and fought off competition from two other applicants to land the job, fingers crossed he can spark a Shielfield revolution... |
