Shrewsbury Town announce that they have appointed caretaker boss Michael Jackson as manager until the end of the season.

Shrewsbury Town have announced that caretaker boss Michael Jackson has been appointed as manager until the end of the season.

Jackson took charge of the first team following the departure of Graham Turner in January.

While the League One outfit have revealed that they considered a list of possible candidates, they opted to promote from within the club.

Chairman Roland Wycherley told the club's official website: "It was clear Michael was the closest match to the profile the board set for the position. He is certainly highly qualified holding all professional coaching badges including a UEFA Pro Licence.

"This brings continuity and stability and Michael has now been at the club for five-and-a-half years as a senior pro and coach."

Shrewsbury are currently second from bottom in the league table.
