Interim boss Stephen Dobbie, who oversaw three wins from his six games in charge, is one of numerous names in the frame.
The 40-year-old did, however, suggest an appointment is unlikely to be made until a sporting director is in place – something owner Simon Sadler was close to being confirmed.
Here’s the latest bookies’ odds according to BetVictor...

12. Stephen Dobbie - 12/1
