Struggling Coventry City have confirmed the appointment of Mark Robins as their new manager.

The Sky Blues are still awaiting their first league win of the campaign and lost 4-1 at Shrewsbury on Tuesday.

The former Manchester United striker, 42, who has penned a three-year deal, told the club’s official website: “This is a great opportunity. Coventry is a club with great tradition and, although we find ourselves in League One, the squad that has been assembled is better than the results so far have shown.”
