Dozens of candidates have applied for the vacant position at the New Bucks Head, which opened up after Liam Watson was sacked on Saturday evening.

The club will hold formal talks with potential successors over the next couple of days with ex-Chester boss Neil Young, who guided the team to three promotions in his four year stint with the Blues from 2010-2014, among the latest names known to have applied.

Former Hereford United manager Martin Foyle, ex-Mansfield boss Paul Cox and ex-Sheffield Wednesday defender Greg Fee have also all thrown their hats in the ring for the post.
