Bootle part ways with manager Mick McGraa
Bootle have announced the departure of manager Mick McGraa by mutual consent.
McGraa, who spent almost 18 months in charge of the Bucks after replacing Dave McNabb in September 2023, was relieved of his duties following Saturday's 1-0 home defeat to second-bottom Hanley Town.
During his first few months in charge, McGraa led the club to the NPL West Division play-offs, where they were beaten by promoted Prescot Cables at the semi-final stage.
However, they have struggled for form this season and former Vauxhall Motors boss McGraa leaves with Bootle 16th in the table, four points above the relegation zone.
Saturday's surprise defeat to struggling Hanley - who had failed to win any of their previous 14 matches and find themselves 21 points from safety - extended Bootle's winless run to four games.
The club have confirmed that the search for McGraa's successor is already underway.
