Scott Lindsey promoted to first-team head coach at Swindon Town a year after leaving Chatham Town in the Southern Counties East Football League

Former Chatham Town manager Scott Lindsey will be managing in League 2 this coming season.

Lindsey left Chatham a year ago, just weeks before the start of their Southern Counties East league campaign to work under Ben Garner as Swindon’s assistant manager. Last season, the Wiltshire side made the play-offs, losing on penalties to Port Vale in the semi-finals.

On behalf of everyone associated with Chatham Town we’d like to wish former gaffer Scott Lindsey all the best following his appointment as First Team Head Coach @Official_STFC. Good luck Scott.#UptheChats
