League Two club Swindon Town have put their faith in new boss Michael Flynn.

The Robins announced ex-Walsall and Newport County man Flynn as their new manager on the last day of their season.

It sees Flynn quickly back into work after his recent dismissal at Walsall.

He replaces Jody Morris at the County Ground following his short-lived tenure.

Swindon owner Clem Morfuni said: "We are delighted to announce Michael Flynn has agreed a deal with the club to take the role and lead us forward, signing a two year contract.

"This was a thorough and fast-moving process as we had very specific requirements for this role, and Michael quickly became the leading candidate.

"We wanted to appoint a manager who is experienced at League Two level, and Michael’s knowledge of the current squad, the division itself and potential new recruits is very comprehensive and impressive.  

“He has a record of recruiting well and has already identified areas he wishes to strengthen with a list of targets, and he will have our full support as he rebuilds the squad."

Swindon finished tenth in League Two after failing to sustain a play-off push under Morris, who replaced Crawley Town-bound Scott Lindsey during the campaign.
