Celtic Legend Scott Brown Abruptly Sacked as Fleetwood Town Manager
Scott Brown, Celtic legend, was abruptly sacked as Fleetwood Town Manager
In a shocking turn of events, the revered Celtic icon, Scott Brown, has been unceremoniously dismissed from his role as manager of Fleetwood Town, mere weeks into the new season. The club made this announcement via an official statement posted on their website, citing a string of unfavourable results as the impetus for this decision.
The statement read, “Fleetwood Town can confirm Head Coach Scott Brown has left the club with immediate effect. Following a difficult run of results, the club reluctantly felt now was the right time to make a change to the First Team management.” In a further blow, Assistant Head Coach Steven Whittaker is also set to depart, prompting heartfelt thanks from the club for their unwavering dedication and professionalism during their tenure.
The club wasted no time in beginning the search for Brown’s replacement, promising to provide updates on the reformation of the first-team staff in the near future.
Fleetwood Town’s performance in League One this season has been less than stellar, securing only a solitary draw in their first six fixtures while suffering defeat in the remaining five, culminating in a 2-1 loss to Charlton Athletic, which proved to be the final straw leading to Brown’s dismissal.
This abrupt change in leadership is likely to come as a disappointment to young Celtic loanees Adam Montgomery and Bosun Lawal, who had looked forward to working under Brown’s guidance for the season. Additionally, the departure will affect former Celtic youth player Scott Robertson, who is currently part of the Fleetwood squad.
