Having first took charge as joint-manager with Stuart Wells team in 2018, McNabb led Blues to the North West Counties League First Division South title in his first year in charge.

He then took sole charge and led the team to two further promotions as well as lifting the FA Vase in 2021.

This season, Blues have won three of their opening six league games but McNabb's final game in charge was last weekend's 4-0 FA Cup loss to Hyde.
