It comes after their manager Ian Dawes was relieved of his duties after the Welsh Premier League club's 1-1 draw at Gap Connah's Quay.

A statement on Bangor City’s official website reveals Dawes has left as a result of not being able to achieve acceptance on a UEFA Pro Licence course.

The announcement is Bangor’s third managerial switch this season, having parted ways with Neville Powell in the summer before hiring Andy Legg who left the club in November.

The Citizens remain in with a chance of European qualification after Rodrigo Branco’s late equaliser at Deeside, but must win all of their remaining games to stay in with a chance.
