David Noble: Wealdstone sack manager after 73 days in charge

David Noble arrived at Wealdstone after eight years at St Albans
National League strugglers Wealdstone have sacked manager David Noble after just 73 days in charge.
Noble was only appointed in January but Wealdstone have picked up just one point from their past six games.
They have five games left of the season - all of them inside 12 days.
And, although they are outside the relegation zone, it is only on goal difference as they are level on points with the team below them, Boreham Wood, and a point ahead of Kidderminster.
Assistant manager Neil Banfield has also left the club, with first team coach Sam Cox appointed interim manager.
"This reluctant decision is not one the board of directors has taken lightly," said a club statement. "It regrettably comes after deep and thorough consideration."
Wealdstone were in the top half when they lost Noble's predecessor Stuart Maynard to Notts County on 18 January.
