WOOTTON Bassett are busy seeking a replacement for Graham Stickler after the Southern Counties South club parted company with their coach.

Chairman Phil Williams has paid tribute to Stickler, and said: "Graham has done a great job for us over the last two years, bringing on a lot of youngsters and reaching a top-three finish this year in the league.

However, since Christmas we have lost some momentum and decided a change was needed to kick start our challenge for promotion next year.

"We are actively looking for a replacement and hope to make an announcement shortly."
