Who Will be the Next Manager of Swindon Town?
Let's take a look at some people that could become the Swindon Town new manager should the position become available, and those that perhaps were in the frame last time the position was vacant, as they may be up for consideration again.
Gary Rowett

Gary Rowett is renowned for his tactical acumen and ability to revitalize teams. He enjoyed a solid playing career as a defender before transitioning into management. He has managed multiple clubs, including Birmingham City, Derby County, and Stoke City, often stabilizing them and pushing for promotion into higher divisions with a pragmatic approach to the game.
Gareth Ainsworth

Having spent eleven years at Wycombe Wanderers Ainsworth was tempted back to manage QPR a club he played over 140 games for.
Unfortunately for both him and hoops fans things did not go well and he was sacked after just 9 months.
The likeable Ainsworth has been out of football since leaving Loftus Road in October 2023.
Leam Richardson
Image: skysports
Accrington Stanley, Wigan Athletic and Rotherham United have all been managed by Leam Richardson
His greatest success came at the Latics when he guided the club into the EFL Championship.
Brian Barry Murphy

Surely Murphy will be appointed somewhere soon as he has featured in nearly every EFL vacancy for the last twelve months.
In 2021 he was appointed to manage the Manchester City Development squad but left in the summer of 2024.
Chris Hughton
Image: skysports
The former Tottenham Hotspur full back has now been in charge of 6 sides Newcastle United, Birmingham City, Norwich City, Brighton and Hove Albion, Nottingham Forest and in 2023 was appointed the manager of Ghana, (his father was Ghanaian).
His best spell as a manager came at Newcastle United between 2009 and 2010, the clubs win record of 55% under his tutelage compares favourably with most of the Geordies managers and he was in charge when Newcastle were promoted from the Championship. Hughton also guided Brighton to the EPL in 2017 before being sacked in May 2019.
Gavin Gunning
Image: Swindon Town
He became the joint caretaker boss at Swindon when manager Scott Lindsey left for pastures new (Crawley Town). His two game role saw him win and lose a game before Jody Morris took the position. Dublin born Gunning could well be in the frame for the Swindon manager's this time around.
Paul Caddis
Image: linkedin/Paul Caddis
A very popular former Swindon player who turned out over 100 times in three spells for the club. Caddis was appointed academy manager at fellow League 2 side Fleetwood Town before moving to manager National League side Hereford.
It would be a bold move to appoint Caddis, but it was said that he was interviewed by Swindon twice in January 2023, and we know at the time he was around 8/1 to get the position.
