Walsall chief-executive Stefan Gamble has spoken to the press following Monday's sacking of Jon Whitney and insisted that the club will not rush into an appointment, revealing that they know which type of manager they are looking for.
Speaking via the Express & Star, Stefan said; "The process is underway to find a new manager. We know what we are looking for, and we have already had a number of applicants.
"We want to ensure we run a thorough process so that we identify the right person to take the club forward. In the meantime the first-team is in good hands under Ian Sharps with John Ward assisting him."
