The Danske Bank Premiership bottom side sacked Nixon following Friday night's loss to Institute and have moved swiftly to get their man.

Chairman Brian Adams said: "We are delighted that Warren has agreed to take over until the end of the season.

"Warren is a man of great experience who will bring a positive attitude to our club."

Feeney's first game in charge is Saturday's massive bottom of the table home encounter against Newry City, at the Bangor Fuels Arena.
