Cash-strapped County went into administration at the end of April with crippling debts, but hope to be taken over by the Melrose consortium shortly. Melrose wanted to tempt Gannon back to Edgeley Park after he was made redundant earlier in the summer but the County legend has instead accepted an offer to manage Motherwell and will be officially unveiled on Tuesday. Melrose said: "We are disappointed. "We spoke with Jim, but with the uncertain situation at Stockport we were not in a position to make him a firm offer. "But we wish him and Motherwell all the very best for the new season. I'm sure he'll do well there."
