Shrewsbury Town's managing director Rob Bickerton said the club will not panic in their search for a new manager.
The Shrews are now taking applications for the vacant managerial post after Gary Peters left the club by mutual agreement on Monday.

Bickerton told BBC Radio Shropshire: "We don't have a great rush and we're not in panic station mode. We're in considered decision making mode."

Coach John McMahon has taken temporary charge until an appointment is made.

Bickerton added: "We're not rushing. There's a process to go through which involves collation of interested parties and establishing whether any of those parties are of interest to us.

"Then you have to go through an interview process. More often than not there's a couple of interviews at least before you get to the point of attempting to appoint somebody and discussing their terms."
