Maggs, the former manager and chief executive of Crawley Town said: “I will decide after meeting with the chairman (Brian Suckling) this weekend.

“We need to sit down, have a chat and come to a conclusion.

“Brian will tell me what his hopes will be for next season. If his aims are to get promotion back into the Ryman then I will stay on.

“I’ve got lots of players phoning me up and it’s a case of wait and see.”

Maggs revealed his last ditch attempt to keep the free-falling Anvils would have taken a miracle to achieve.

He said: “When I arrived at Crawley Down it was beyond repair. I had 24 hours to bring new players in before the deadline.

“When we won against Walton I thought we had a chance. But then we picked up injuries and couldn’t field our strong side.

“We were definitely a better unit but we couldn’t get any more wins.”
