Fowler, whose son Andrew is also involved in the club, will take on the position of chairman at LNER Stadium and will "assume responsibility for the funding of the club for the immediate future". The ownership shake-up at Lincoln, who are second in the table, was confirmed as a "future development" in the club's annual accounts covering the 12 months up to June 2025.
When Lincoln City were casting around for a new head coach back in late 2023 the name Michael Skubala may not have been at the top of everyone's list but, a win over Doncaster on Saturday (15:00 GMT) will take him to the top of something even more important, the League One table. The former PE teacher had a brief spell as caretaker boss of Leeds United, eventually becoming Javi Gracia's first-team coach before Lincoln came calling.
