Birmingham City are looking for a new manager following relegation and the resignation of Tony Mowbray
One of the front-runners to take over as Birmingham City’s new manager is Alex Neil.
After an intense 16 months as manager, Neil left Stoke City in December. He was given the responsibility of completely revamping the playing team. He could not achieve the outcomes he believed would have given him the additional time he felt was necessary to demonstrate his ability to lead the club forward.
After leading Sunderland to promotion from League One, he has earned promotions at Hamilton Academical and Norwich during his more than 400 appearances on the sidelines.
As he considers his future move, he was observed at St Andrew’s in the latter part of the season. With their relegation to the third division, a vacancy has since arisen.
After taking an illness-related leave of absence, Tony Mowbray has announced his resignation. Meanwhile, Gary Rowett, the former Stoke manager who had returned to the club in an attempt to lead it to safety, has concluded his brief return to St Andrew’s.
“Obviously, I’ve been on a few holidays since I left Stoke and had time to reflect – as you do,” he recently told the Lancashire Post. Every club you work at is completely unique—they aren’t even close in comparison. To be honest, including the way things are organised and the way you report to others. And as soon as you enter any club, people want to convey to you their perception of the circumstances around the establishment.
However, every club you enter makes you say, “Oo, right, OK, it’s a little bit different than what I thought,” when you open up the hood and peek underneath. After then, you must strive to win as many games as you can by making the most of what you have. However, I’ll simply search for the next challenge and see what presents itself throughout the course of the summer or the coming year.
“To be really honest, I would like to attempt and replicate the experience I had at Preston during those years—namely, a team that I truly like and players who are driven, ambitious, and eager to succeed. It’s not something you encounter every day, but I was lucky to enter the appropriate changing room at the appropriate moment. I want to give it another go.
