Jim Gannon Favourite For Stockport Job

Former manager Jim Gannon is currently leading the race to be appointed manager of Blue Square Premier side Stockport County.

Gannon had a fantastically successful spell in charge of the club in the recent past, however since then both he and the club have slipped down the leagues.

Other managers linked to the job have been Mike Newell, Ray Mathias, Sammy McIllroy and Jim Harvey. It is thought that Gannon is a clear favourite and in the fans eyes an ideal choice, it is all about whether Gannon can agree terms and get over any differences he may have with the clubs owners.

If he can then this could be a chance to ressurect Stockport County and set about getting back Football League status.
