The club's board will be looking to make an appointment as swiftly as possible, therefore any applicants should be aware that they are proposing to hold interviews as early as Sunday 3rd September, 2017, so a manager is in place from Monday 4th September to prepare for the Bridlington game on the 6th. The interviews will be held at Sheerien Park.

Once all applications have been received, the board will draw up a shortlist of the candidates that are of interest and arrange interviews accordingly.
