For the time being, Blues Academy boss Mike Geoghegan will take charge of the team while a new manager is found.
Geoghegan has confirmed that Brian Murphy will make his return to the team, with a view towards playing a more attractive style of football.
“My first conversation was with Brian to see where he thought where he was. The style of play I want to play will dictate – maybe an experienced goalkeeper. Even though Paul has done brilliantly the last five matches – it just dictates maybe a goalkeeper that comes in, has been there and is prepared to take a risk on decisions knowing that it won’t go against him because he’s been around the block.”
