Stimpson, along with former player-manager Peter Smith took over as caretaker of Kendal after Hesketh left the club in November 2006, but left after just one game in charge.

Stimpson returned to Lancaster City later in November 2006, this time as manager of a side marooned at the foot of the Conference North after going through serious financial problems.
