[BigBoss85]

​

Chesterfield Football Club have released a statement informing the media that Paul Cook has resigned from his post as manager of the club. Cook stating "personal reasons" are the driving force for relinquishing the reigns of The Spireites. Cook also thanked the board for the opportunity to manage the club and their continued support throughout this difficult time.


Chairman Dave Allen thanked Cook for all his hard work and wished him all the best in the future. Allen took this opportunity to also assure fans that a replacement will be appointed within 24 hrs.


A source within the club believes that Paul Cook has recommended a young coach who Cook completed his coaching badges with to become his replacement. However this seems unlikely as experience will be preferred by the board, as Chesterfield hold aims of automatic promotion from League 2. Although Allen holds Cook in high regard and according to sources Cook maybe well be involved with the interview process.
