Gloucester City are still searching for a new manager after James Rowe left the club to join National League side Chesterfield on November 23.
The Tigers are currently top of the National League North after 12 games, but they have failed to win any of their three games since Rowe departed.
City are expected to appoint a new manager on December 9 and here are some of the main candidates for the job.
Jamie McAllister
McAllister is believed to be one of the front-runners having been spotted at Gloucester’s last two home games.
The former Scotland international was last at Bristol City, where he was assistant head coach to Lee Johnson before leaving the club in August.
McAllister had a stellar playing career, clocking up over 550 games for the likes of Aberdeen, Bristol City and Yeovil Town – but this would be his first job in management.
Scott Lindsey
Lindsey currently manages Southern Counties East Football League side Chatham Town. Chatham are currently top of the league, winning 10 of their 11 games and scoring a staggering 60 goals.
The 48-year-old was assistant manager to Mark Cooper at Forest Green Rovers, before leaving the club in September 2019 due to personal reasons.
Lindsey, who also had assistant manager roles at Tamworth and Lincoln City, is known for his attractive style of football.
Tim Flowers
Flowers is undoubtedly the biggest name of the list of managerial candidates. In his playing days, the goalkeeper won 11 England caps and made nearly 200 appearances for Blackburn Rovers, helping them to a second place finish in 1993.
The 53-year-old has had spells in charge of Stafford Rangers and Solihull Moors, whom he led to a second place finish in the National League in the 18/19 campaign.
Most recently, Flowers was appointed as Macclesfield Town manager in August, but the club was wound-up just a month later.
David Oldfield
Oldfield is currently managing National League South outfit Oxford City, who are sitting 11th after nine games played.
The ex-Manchester City and Leicester City midfielder has only been in charge of City since March, but he recently led the club to the FA Cup second round, where they were narrowly beaten 1-0 by League One Shrewsbury Town.
Oldfield’s only other managerial job was at Brackley Town between 2007 and 2008.
