STEVENAGE chairman Phil Wallace has fired off a warning to any club hoping to employ their former manager Mark Stimson.

“If that happens without our consent there will be certain legal ramifications which we will pursue with all the means at our disposal,” said Mr Wallace.

“We simply will not allow our employment contracts to be manipulated for other people’s gain, unless it’s on our terms.”

Stimson quit Stevenage last week and has been heavily linked to the vacant manager’s job at Gillingham.
