Exeter City have been given permission by Leyton Orient to approach their Youth Team Coach, Alex Inglethorpe, for the vacant position of first team manager, following the departure of Eamon Dolan to Reading's Football Academy.
Ex Orient and Exeter player Inglethorpe will be missed at Brisbane Road, but in a statement the club said, "It's an opportunity for him to progress but we'd really rather he didn't go becaause of how he's doing with the youth team."
Inglethorpe is believed to be one of two candidates being interviewed for the vacancy.
