It is a family affair for new Shrewsbury Town CEO Liam Dooley
Shrewsbury Town’s new chief executive Liam Dooley is ready to give everything he has in his new role.
Dooley has been in post at Shrews for roughly three weeks after filling the gap left by Brian Caldwell, who departed earlier this year after a long stint in Shropshire.
The new chief executive has already won favour with some fans after pledging to improve communication with the club’s supporters – something that Shrewsbury have not always got right in recent times.
Since his appointment, Town have had mixed results, but Dooley and his family are now fully-fledged Salop supporters, he says that when you start working for a club, it becomes a ‘part of you’.
“My dad has already come to every game since I got the job,” he said.
“He has a Shrewsbury hat and a Shrewsbury shirt, and he sat in the away end at Barnsley and at Wigan.
“I think that becomes part of you, and my other half is the same.
“Every time I leave work on a Friday to go back up north, it costs me £200 in the club shop for the different shirts I am buying for people.
