Staying in charge - Gary Waddock
GARY Waddock is expecting to remain as Southend United’s caretaker manager for tomorrow’s crunch clash with AFC Wimbledon at Roots Hall.
Shrimpers chairman Ron Martin had expected to name a new boss at the start of the week.
But, despite rumours linking former England international Sol Campbell with the role, Blues have still yet to make an appointment - five weeks after Kevin Bond’s departure.
And Waddock - who has been in charge of the last six matches - is now preparing to also take the team for this weekend’s encounter with the Dons.
Waddock said: “As far as I’m aware I’ll be in charge for Saturday.”
Blues sit 22nd in the table, one place below Wimbledon.
