Hannah Dingley is expected to revert to her role as academy manager at Forest Green Rovers, after the club appointed the Southampton B team manager, Dave Horseman, as their new head coach.
Dingley made history this month by becoming the first woman to lead an elite English men’s team after taking interim charge of the League Two side but it is thought she was not one of the 100-plus candidates to apply to take on the role on a permanent basis.
