Bristol Rovers’ League One rivals Wycombe Wanderers are set to lose long-standing manager Gareth Ainsworth, three weeks before they’re due to play the Gas at the Mem.
Multiple reports claim Ainsworth is poised to be confirmed as the new manager of Championship side Queens Park Rangers having emerged as the board’s preferred candidate after the sacking of Neil Critchley on Sunday night.
Ainsworth is the second longest-serving manager in the EFL, after Harrogate Town’s Simon Weaver, and the longest in League One, having first taken over at Wycombe in 2012 and his departure will leave a huge void in the decision-making at Adams Park.
