In Kirk's absence, his assistant, Jennifer Foster, along with first-team coach Stephen Kirby, guided the team to a 2-0 victory in the FA Cup quarter-final and have continued to lead the team since then. Kirk's departure comes amidst allegations of a relationship with one of the players, although the specifics of this allegation have not been disclosed by the club.
