For Connell Rawlinson, his start as Chester’s interim boss could not have gone any better.
A 98th-minute winner in his debut game on the touchlines against Darlington at the Deva Stadium seven days ago was followed up with a 97th-minute success at a rain-soaked Merthyr Town on Tuesday, as Chester made it three wins in a row and put themselves level with the play-off places in the National League North.
For Rawlinson, he knows he is minding the shop and that there will be a different manager in the dugout from next season, although the 34-year-old hopes to be involved in the coaching setup at the club in some capacity.
