In a statement, the club said: “For the next 2/3 games our manager Chris Millington is having to put his feet up and rest.

"Following a small hospital procedure which involved an operation he has to undergo a period of enforced recuperation.

"It appears the operation has been a total success.

"We look forward to his return as soon as possible. With our blessing he must only return when he is fully recovered.

"Andy Cooper, with the help of the backroom team, will oversee the first team in the interim.”

Town are away at Maidenhead this afternoon before visiting Braintree on Tuesday night and then hosting Wealdstone next Saturday.
