Askey was appointed manager of Hartlepool in February and had 13 games in League Two and has now had seven games in the National League.
Within that time Askey has won eight, drawn seven and lost just five of his games in charge, with Pools having made their best start to a league season in 35 years this term.
And much has changed at Hartlepool since Askey's arrival – particularly in terms of his squad.
Askey’s first game in charge of the club came in a 3-3 draw with Walsall with as many as 13 players from the match day squad of 18 in that game having moved on from the club.
And here we look back at Askey’s first squad and where some of those players are now after his 20th game in charge:
