Michael joined Rugby as Lee Colkin's assistant in November 2009.

Love started his career at Hinckley, before playing at two Football League clubs - Wigan and Wycombe Wanderers.

A three year stint in the Conference at Stevenage was followed by a six year one at Nuneaton - where he was part of the side that famously took then-Premier League Middlesbrough to a replay in the 3rd round of the FA Cup in 2005.

He then returned to Hinckley for a season, before playing at Brackley for a similar length of time.

Michael also had a spell with Shepshed Dynamo as a player coach in 2009.
