Mark Kennedy: Swindon Town sack head coach after poor run
Swindon Town have sacked head coach Mark Kennedy after less than five months in charge with the club hovering above the League Two relegation zone.
Kennedy was appointed on a two-year contract on 29 May but has overseen just two league wins this season and six losses in 13 games, with the club 22nd in the table.
Tuesday’s 2-1 defeat at Salford was the 48-year-old’s final game in charge.
First-team coaches Marcus Bignot, Steve Mildenhall and Gavin Gunning will stay on at the County Ground and lead the side on an interim basis, with the club aiming to appoint Kennedy’s successor “at the earliest opportunity”.
“Everyone at Swindon Town Football Club would like to express their appreciation to Mark for his commitment and hard work during his time with the club and wish him all the best in the future,” a club statement, external read.
Former Lincoln boss Kennedy was brought in at the end of last season following Swindon’s lowest league finish in 40 years, as they came 19th in the fourth tier.
However, the Robins have remained near the foot of the table this campaign too.
Kennedy said after the Salford defeat he was not worried about his position at the club.
“Thinking, worrying about tomorrow ruins today, so you can only control the controllables,” he told BBC Radio Wiltshire.
