Scott Brown has penned a new two-year deal at Fleetwood Town.
The legendary Celtic skipper took over the top job at the Cod Army last summer and enjoyed a successful first 12 months in the dugout. He guided his troops to a comfortable English League One finish while he also went on a fairytale FA Cup run and set club history along the way before a heartbreaking defeat to Burnley.
The Hoops hero will be aiming to do it all again and have his squad go even better than last season with the former Scotland international boasting a real winners mentality. He can't wait to get the new season underway and has vowed to give everything he can to bring success to the town.

He told the Fleetwood Town website : “I’m glad to have got the deal over the line, it’s been a brilliant first year in the job and can’t wait for the new season to start.
“I’ve been made to feel right at home by the Fleetwood staff, players, and fanbase so I just want to give everything I can to bring success to the town, hopefully starting with a win on Saturday.”
A club statement read: "Fleetwood Town are delighted to announce head coach Scott Brown has signed a new two-year contract with the club, meaning he will stay on the Fylde Coast until 2025.
"Brown had a successful first campaign as his side finished comfortably in League One, bolstered the ranks ahead of the 2023/24 season, and guided Town to their best-ever Emirates FA Cup run - reaching the fifth round of the competition.
"The 38-year-old made the step into management for the first time just over a year ago, with Fleetwood being his maiden job after what was an incredible playing career.
"He led Glasgow Celtic to 23 major trophies during a career spanning 20 years, including 55 caps for his native Scotland."
