Swindon Town Chief Executive Steps Down

Swindon Town have announced that the club’s chief executive, Nick Watkins, has vacated his role at the club.

Watkins joined the Robins in January 2008 and will remain available to the League One club throughout March in order to assist with the transition to the new regime, led by Jed McCrory, who took over on 21 February.

Watkins said: “I am relieved and delighted that the club has been able to secure new owners and I wish Jed McCrory and his team every ounce of success going forward.

“I have thoroughly enjoyed each single minute of my five years with the club and I shall remember my time here with great affection.

“I have been privileged to work with a great team of people, and I am proud that I can hand to the new owners a club that is in peak condition.

“To the STFC staff, sponsors, suppliers, and the fans, I would like to express my genuine and very sincere gratitude for your friendship and support.”
