League Two: longest serving managers

We're back in League Two, so we take a peek at the League Two managers to judge their longevity in their respective jobs.

Looking through the stats, we've noticed that at time of writing:

* None of the relegated sides from last season have sacked their manager as a result of that relegation

* 13 of the League Two sides have not had their manager at the helm for more than a season

* John Still has been in charge at Dagenham for over eight years now

* There are five managers who have been in charge at their club for less time than Dale boss John Coleman
