Weston Delay Manager Appointment

Weston-super-Mare, who are almost certain to be relegated from National South, have decided not to appoint a new manager for the time being despite having interviewed a number of candidates.

Caretaker manager Mark McKeever will stay in charge until at least the end of the season. He was appointed after Marc McGregor was sacked a month ago.

“We have taken considerable time and effort to appoint the right person(s) to the post of manager to guide us in the next phase of our development to the benefit of supporters, players and the club," said a Weston statement.

“We have been unable to achieve this at the present time despite several interviews of highly regarded people in the business.

“We will revisit the manager position at the end of the season but our objectives remain unchanged and will look for the right person to drive those objectives of the board for the next few years."

According to the Somerset Mercury former Hereford boss Peter Beadle and ex-Truro City and Taunton Town managerial duo Leigh Robinson and Michael Meaker were believed to be in the frame.
