GERAINT Williams has signed a deal to be Leyton Orient boss next season.

The Welshman has put pen to paper on a contract and put an end to speculation over his future.

Kevin Nugent is his new number two, after he also committed himself to the club.

Chairman Barry Hearn said: "We're delighted George and Kevin have agreed to stay with us and continue the good work that they've started over recent months.

They've impressed us with their professionalism and dedication, and the results have been excellent at a difficult time.

"The first aim was always to maintain League One status, and that's been done with some breathing space so now our focus turns to next season and improving the squad.
