New AFC Telford boss Andy Sinton dedicated his debut win - 5-0 against Hyde - to his late father.

"My dad, who passed away a couple of months ago, would have loved to be here," an emotional Sinton told BBC Radio Shropshire.

"He was always crying out for me to go to a higher level, so that's for him."

Sinton, the former England winger who played for Wolves and Spurs, joined Telford in the summer after previously managing Fleet in the Ryman South.

Sinton's mother and brother were at the game, along with his 10-year-old daughter Emma.
