Andrews served as assistant manager of Ireland and was also on Chris Wilder's staff at Sheffield United. Brentford thanked Frank on Thursday evening for his "incredible role" in the club's history. Bees director of football Phil Giles said: "From the moment he replaced Dean Smith, Thomas understood what we were trying to build and his wisdom, coaching ability and emotional intelligence have helped transform the club. "But it's not just what you see on the pitch. "He forged a special connection with our fans, helped develop and improve players, and was instrumental in implementing the culture that has seen Brentford go from strength to strength. "We will never forget Thomas, but now it is time to thank him and take the next steps in our journey with a new leader who we believe can be just as successful and influential."
