The professional age is completed

The first team’s performance were reminiscent of the first half of the previous season but now they were season long. Despite a win over fellow strugglers, Peterborough, this uptick in performance was too little and much too late to save the job of first team coach Marshall Gadd. Marshall was not offered a renewal of his contract into the following season and chose to leave the coaching role with immediate effect. Andy Appleyard took over the position for the remainder of the season.
