Butler extends - themaclad - 06-03-2026

Scunthorpe United boss Andy Butler has extended his contract through to the end of the 2027-28 season.

The 42-year-old guided the club to promotion from National League North in his first season in charge in 2024-25.

The Iron are sixth in the National League despite failing to win any of their past six league matches.

"I'm really pleased. It's nice to be rewarded for what's been a successful season so far," Butler told BBC Radio Humberside.

"It means we're doing something right and gives us a bit of stability.

"It's been a good two years I think and now we can start planning for next season."

Butler's assistant John Schofield and goalkeeper coach Paul Musselwhite have also extended their deals through to the summer of 2028.
