Andy Thorn has finally signed his manager's contract at Coventry City.

Thorn had verbally agreed to take over last month but only now has he and Assistant Manager Steve Harrison signed their deals.

Speaking about the deals which Thorn and his assistant Steve Harrison signed, Coventry City Chairman Ken Dulieu (pictured below) said to the club website:

"We are delighted both Andy and Steve have signed contracts with the club and that all of the paperwork is now complete.

"Now that's been done, they can continue to concentrate on the team and building a squad for next season.

"We have all recognised what a fantastic job they both did at the end of last season and not only were they the board's choice, they were quite clearly the fans' choice too

"The brand of football, coupled with excellent results - particularly at the Ricoh Arena where the team went unbeaten under their stewardship, really lifted the whole club.

"That was seen from the reaction during and after the final home game of the season, we are delighted that they have both signed deals to take the club forward next season.”
