Gary Setchell (born 8 May 1975) is an English former professional footballer and manager of Southern League Division 1 Central Side, Bedford Town F.C.[1] After retiring from playing, he managed non-league clubs King's Lynn Town and Wisbech Town.[2]

In July 2015 Setchell was appointed full-time General Manager of King's Lynn Town Football Club to help build links between the club and local community.[3]

In October 2015 he reached his 300th game as manager of King's Lynn Town.[4]

On 21 February 2017 Gary was sacked from his post as manager of King's Lynn Town, having been in charge of the club for a total of 384 matches.[5] During almost seven years as manager he had overseen two promotions, as well as taking King's Lynn to the FA Vase Semi Finals in 2010/11 and the last 16 of the FA Trophy in 2012/13.

In September 2017, Setchell was announced as first team manager to Wisbech Town FC almost 7 years after previously leaving his post there. He resigned from the role in May 2019.[6] He accepted the role of first-team manager of Bedford Town F.C. on the 25th September 2020.[7]
