The Steelmen and Mills parted ways immediately after their 2-0 defeat at Belper Town on the final day of the season, meaning a 15^th-place finish for the club.

A brief statement read: “Corby Town Football Club can confirm they have parted company with the first team manager by mutual consent

“We would like to thank the manager for his efforts and wish him all the best in the future.”

A former European Cup winner with Nottingham Forest and an ex-Gateshead, Grantham Town, King’s Lynn Town, Tamworth, Wrexham and York City manager, Mills took over at Steel Park in August 2020.

The 59-year-old, who played for the likes of Brian Clough, David Pleat and Neil Warnock, took York back up into the EFL in 2012 via the National League’s play-off final at Wembley as well as twice winning the FA Trophy in 2012 and 2017.

Mills succeeded Tommy Wright, the ex-Nuneaton Borough, Darlington and Stratford Town manager.

All interested parties are requested to send their CV with covering letter to the club chairman Stevie Noble, steven.noble01@btinternet.com.

The deadline for applications is 11.59pm on Monday 2nd May, 2022.
