Jamie Fullarton sacked by Notts County, after just 69 days and 12 games. Mark Cooper supposedly the front-runner to take over.

Mark Cooper turned down the Stevenage job
because Chairman Phil Wallace would not
allow Cooper to bring in his own assistant.

Mark Cooper now confirmed at Meadow Lane:
http://www.nottinghampost.com/Mark-Coop ... story.html

No mention of an assistant being brought in. In a nice line in irony, Ray Trew (the club owner) says the club needs stability - so he has appointed Cooper until the end of the season.
