5 Football League managers whose jobs are under threat 

#2 Mark Yates - Macclesfield Town

Mark Yates and Macclesfield look set for a return to non-league

It has to be tough being a Macclesfield Town fan. The club had a remarkable season last year, achieving promotion under then manager John Askey with one of the tightest budgets in the league, but they have found life back in the Football League incredibly difficult.

Mark Yates was brought in as a replacement for John Askey following a successful run at Solihull Moors last season but the former Cheltenham manager has yet to pick up a single league victory so far at Moss Rose.

Macclesfield will find themselves in a difficult position, however, given that the club isn't particularly well-off financially, and that they have signed Yates to a three-year deal.

As things stand, an immediate return to non-league footballs looks very likely for Macclesfield Town.
