Wright appointed manager of St Johnstone
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}St Johnstone hired Tommy Wright as its new manager on Monday to replace Steve Lomas.
Lomas led the club to a third-place finish in the Scottish Premier League last term, but he decided to take up the post of manager at Millwall.
The 49-year-old Wright has served as an assistant to Lomas at St Johnstone since November 2011, and he has gained coaching experience at stops that include Limavady United, Ballymena United and Lisburn Distillery.
