Carlton Town Football Club has appointed Gaz Bee as its new Commercial Manager, filling the position following the departure of Gary Clarke. The club, based at the Bill Stokeld Stadium in Gedling, announced the appointment on 18 May 2026.
Mr. Bee is a familiar face at the club, he began his journey at the club in 2011 and later served as the Deputy Commercial Manager. He takes over the role from Mr. Clarke, who spent five years at the club and is leaving to become Chairman of Dunkirk FC. During his tenure, Mr. Clarke was credited with significantly improving the club’s commercial operations and was recognised for his community work.
The appointment comes at a notable time for the club, which recently concluded a successful 2025-26 season. The team achieved record points, goals, and attendance figures, ultimately finishing second in the Northern Premier League Division One Midlands. During the same period, Chairman Mick Garton celebrated his 25th year at the helm of the club.
Mr. Bee has already begun his work in the new position, including leading fundraising efforts for Project Stadium 2025, which recently raised over £2,800. He is currently seeking local businesses interested in sponsoring players for the upcoming season. Supporters and local business owners who wish to get involved with the club’s commercial activities are encouraged to contact Mr. Bee directly at 07791 681407.
