Landmark move as League Two club Forest Green Rovers appoint Hannah Dingley as caretaker manager
Making her the FIRST woman to lead a men's pro football team in England.
Forest Green Rovers have placed head of academy Hannah Dingley in caretaker charge of the men's senior team following the departure of Duncan Ferguson.
In a landmark move for English football exclusively revealed by Mail Sport, Dingley has been handed the reins of the League Two club after Ferguson's sudden exit.
Dingley - who has a UEFA Pro Licence - becomes the first woman, albeit temporarily for now, to lead a men's senior side in one of England's top-four divisions.

Great news.
Don't read anything in the comments section though, the Daily Mail can be a cesspool.
