Last updated 8th Jun 2022
Swindon Town's Head Coach Ben Garner has left the County Ground, to take the helm at Charlton Athletic.
A compensation fee has been agreed between the two clubs, but the exact figure hasn't yet been revealed.
The 42-year-old spent one season with The Robins. Despite starting his tenure with just six first-team players, he led the club to the League Two play-offs.
Garner's final game in charge was an agonising defeat on penalties at Port Vale, in the play-off semi-final second leg.
'We hope to make an appointment soon'
In a statement, Swindon Town said: "We'd like to thank Ben for his considerable efforts during his time with us.
"We also want to reassure fans that the search for a new Head Coach is well underway and we hope to make an appointment soon.
"We want to make sure that this next appointment is right for the Football Club, so thank you for your continued patience and support".
