ALBION ROVERS have announced that manager Darren Young will depart the club at the end of the season after failing to agree terms for a new contract.
The 38-year-old joined the League One club in June 2014, guiding them to the League Two title in his first season in charge.
However, with Rovers currently sitting in seventh place in the standings with two games remaining, the club announced that Young will depart at the end of the campaign.
A club statement read: "Albion Rovers FC wishes to announce that at the end of the season manager Darren Young will be leaving the club after terms for a contract for next season could not be agreed.
"Darren will remain in charge to ensure the club’s League One position. Darren leaves with the club’s best wishes and thanks for what he has done for Albion Rovers over the past 3 years.
"The club will now begin the process to find Darren’s successor."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
