Danny Lennon sacked by St Mirren

St Mirren sack manager Danny Lennon following a four-year spell at the club.

St Mirren have sacked manager Danny Lennon following a four-year spell in charge of the club.

The 45-year-old guided the Buddies to their first ever Scottish League Cup triumph in 2011, but a 10th-placed finish in the Scottish Premiership table this season has seen the board opt against renewing his contract.

"Decisions like this are never easy," read a statement on the club's official website. "However, we would in particular commend Danny for his professionalism and the dignified way he has carried out his duties during a very challenging season."

Lennon's final game in charge of St Mirren was a 1-1 draw with Hearts on Saturday.
