Paul Cox leaves Mansfield Town by mutual consent

Mansfield Town announce that manager Paul Cox has left the League Two club by mutual consent.

Mansfield Town have announced that manager Paul Cox has left the club by mutual consent.

The League Two outfit confirmed on their official website that Cox's three-year stint as boss at Field Mill has come to an end with immediate effect.

Chairman John Radford said: "I've had a long discussion with Paul Cox this afternoon about the future of the club. As you know, this is a club which both Paul and myself hold very close to our hearts.

"Unfortunately, as a result of those discussions, Paul and I have regrettably reached the conclusion that it's in the best interests of Mansfield Town Football Club if he stepped down from his current role with immediate effect. Therefore, the search now begins for a new manager.

"It remains for me to ask for all supporters to unite behind the club and whoever is appointed as our new manager, to ensure that the team has the best chance of achieving the successes on the pitch that we all want."

Adam Murray has been placed in temporary charge of the first team, who currently sit 19th in the league table.
