The League One side sacked Stephen Findlay earlier this month after a run of five defeats from seven games.

Following a spell coaching in Norway, ex-St Mirren manager Murray will take up the post on Monday following Airdrie's clash with Montrose.

The club currently lie sixth in the third tier, eleven points behind leaders Arbroath, but Murray believes the squad is capable of challenging at the top-end of the table.

He told the club website: " Airdrieonians is obviously a name which is well respected in Scottish football, and the opportunity to help the club fulfil its potential is a huge draw.

The League One side lost 3-1 at home to Brechin City - their fourth defeat in a run of five winless games - on Saturday to slip down to sixth place.

Findlay had been in charge of the club's under-20s and moved up to the first team last August.

He replaced Willie Aitchison, who left only two weeks into the job having succeeded Mark Wilson.

The club’s most successful period in the 1920s culminated in a Scottish FA Cup Final victory in 1924 over Hibernian, whilst from 1922 to 1926 it took Rangers and Celtic to prevent the club winning the Scottish League.

Nicknamed The Diamonds, cup runs became the club’s trademark as it reached three other Scottish FA Cup Finals, and innumerable other semi-finals in that tournament and the Scottish League Cup. The club also won the Spring Cup in 1976 and the Bells Challenge Cup in both 2000 and 2001.

In the days when Scottish football regularly produced wonderful players, Hughie Gallacher, one of the all-time great centre-forwards, sprang to national and international prominence at Airdrie.

Despite a history of over-achievement, even as a part-timers, Airdrieonians FC truly stepped into the modern era in 2002 when it became the first Scottish senior club to go out of business since Third Lanark in 1967. But the spirit of the club lived on and the town welcomed first Airdrie United into being, and for the start of the 2013-14 season the name Airdrieonians was restored to that North Lanarkshire town of some 37,000 people.

Head Coach: Mark Wilson
Ground: Excelsior Stadium also known as new Broomfield (after their old ground which was sold to Safeway the supermarket chain).
