Tommy Wright appointed caretaker manager following John Sheridan resignation

Swindon have moved quickly to appoint Tommy Wright as caretaker manager until the end of the season following the resignation of John Sheridan.

Sheridan stepped down following the 4-1 defeat at AFC Wimbledon and a run of five-straight defeats, with Town sitting rock-bottom of the League One table and seven points adrift.

A club statement read: “The club would like to thank John for his time in what must have been a difficult period for him personally and wish him the best for the future.
