...has been sacked by Rushden because "The club have decided performances and squad selection do not fit in with its long-term plan".
What's that all about then? Taking 21 points from 11 games is a pretty healthy return for a team which looked to be going down. There's always some controversy around Westley - wonder what it is this time?!

The board wanted him to save them from relegation and now that they feel safer they want to see some decent football.

It didn't take Rushden long to appoint Garry Hill as their new manager.

I think their supporters trust should be asking if the board went through a proper recruitment process to ensure they appointed the best candidate.
Oh hang on.......the board are the supporters trust.

I should think that anyone who appoints Garry Hill as manager of a Conference Club can be pretty sure they chose the best candidate.

Not anymore, the Trust had a vote a few weeks ago and handed control of the club to Keith Cousins.

Of course, Mr Westley has an immpecable record regarding loyalty, as any fan of Farnborough will tell you.
I've decided not to shed any tears for him.
