The
decision comes just weeks before their Emirates FA Cup First Round tie against
Bolton Wanderers.
But
Rusk will not be taking them there after the Hatters announced they had parted
company with him and assistant Mark McGhee.
A
statement from the club reads: "Following a difficult start to the season,
the Board have made the decision to part company with Manager Simon Rusk.
"Simon
will leave the club with immediate effect alongside assistant manager Mark
McGhee, as the club re-structures its coaching staff focused on future success
and progression.
"We
would like to thank Simon and Mark for their hard work, integrity, and
dedication to the club during their tenure, including last season’s 18 game
unbeaten run.
"In
the interim, first-team coach Dave Conlon will take the helm, with the support
of the wider coaching staff.
"No further comment
will be made until a new appointment has been made". |
