Report: Notts County not interested in Mark Yates or Danny Cowley


Joe Jones

Notts County are not interested in either former Crawley Town manager Mark Yates or Braintree Town boss Danny Cowley, according to reports.

There had been speculation in previous days that the Magpies were considering making a move for the above managers.

The Nottingham Post, however, says Notts are searching for an experienced manager to take the job, in the hope of reviving the club's fortunes.

This would rule out Cowley, with Braintree chairman Lee Harding saying he had received no approach from the Magpies.

In addition, Notts are thought not to consider Yates a suitable candidate to take over from Mark Cooper.

Grimsby Town boss Paul Hurst remains the bookmakers' choice to become Notts’ next manager, with Sky Bet offering odds of 1/4 on him being in charge of the club next season.

Good to read a summary of all the speculation. It would be nice to hear from the Club what is happening on the ownership and manager recruitment status.

*Sigh of relief (good one for once).

I didn't fancy either of these, Notts must make a strong decision and appoint someone who can help us forget about this past season - regardless of who the owner may or may not be. @Spie you would be lucky! COYP

I don't enjoy to trade in speculation, generally. As has been noted already, this prolonged silence from the club heightens anxiety, as well as hampers preparation for next season.

Given the names of faces currently spinning by on the unemployed managerial merry-go round, and not being excited by any of the dross, I decided to spend a few minutes investigating.

Since Sky invented football, I decided to have a scuba in their think-tank. Of the thirteen English clubs listed, for whom there is 'next permanent manager' market, Malky Mackay's odds are shortest for the Notts County role; 12/1. Steve Cotterill is at 14s, just for context.
