Last updated : 14 February 2013 By Covsupport News Service

As expected, Mark Robins has been appointed as the new manager of Huddersfield Town.

Robins has had talks with The Terriers about becoming their manager on Tuesday night after Coventry City gave him permission to talk to the Championship club and yesterday and was unveiled this morning.

Huddersfield Town chairman Dean Hoyle told his club's website: "Obviously retaining  our Championship status is vital, but we also needed a manager who buys into the club's football philosophy and structure. We believe Mark is that man. 

"Mark has shown his skill in getting the most from the resources at his disposal, none more so than his recent achievements at Coventry; within five months he has pulled that side away from the League One relegation zone and given them a genuine chance of being involved in the promotion mix."
