Non-League club part company with Bristol Rovers hero after disappointing start to season

Gloucester City have confirmed they’ve parted company with Bristol Rovers hero Lee Mansell after a disappointing start to the campaign, almost a year to the day since he first arrived at the National League North club.

Former Gas midfielder Mansell took over at Meadow Park, initially as interim manager on September 25 last year, and after a challenging campaign last season in which they finished 17th, was expected to launch a promotion bid in 2022/23.

However, Gloucester have won just four of their opening 10 fixtures and lie 15th in the table after drawing 1-1 with Banbury in midweek, albeit just three points off a play-off berth.
