Preston expect to name their new manager ahead of the FA Cup third round clash with Nottingham Forest. The club have received around 40 applications for the job since Darren Ferguson's departure and a shortlist of candidates has been compiled by chairman Maurice Lindsay and owner Trevor Hemmings. Lindsay told the Lancashire Evening Post: "All applicants that are now shortlisted are well known and have considerable experience. "No decision has been made and no approaches made to anyone."
