[14][15] The club's CEO Ryan Sparks said that Trueman and Sellars had the board's full support whilst the search for a permanent manager was ongoing.

[3] That same day the duo were nominated for the February 2021 EFL League Two Manager of the Month award, after one loss and four successive victories.

[35] In May 2021, after a dip in the team's form which saw them lose 5 matches in a row, Sellars said that he and Trueman would get out of their slump and that they had done their job in guiding the club away from relegation.

[40] It was later announced that Trueman would stay with the club as a first-team link coach, although Sellars had yet to make a decision.
