Boss King departs after Borough's young guns seal derby victory at Whitehawk

Pablo Asensio, an Argentinian coach who was King’s assistant and had previously worked with former Brighton manager Gus Poyet, has taken charge for the remainder of the season.

Club president Chris Gargan said, “It’s a result business and, with nine points from the last 12 games, league results have not been commensurate with the level of investment. We are grateful for what Steve has done for the club.”
