Early contenders for Norwich job emerge

Steve Cotterill and Gary Rowett are both interested in the Norwich City managerial job, according to Sky Sports.

Neil was sacked earlier today, and Rowett and Cotterill are the first men to be linked with taking over at City.

Rowett has been a fan favourite to take over from Neil every since his surprise dismissal from Birmingham City earlier this season. The Blues were sat in 6th place when Rowett was sacked and replaced with Gianfranco Zola.

Steve Cotterill was sacked by struggling Bristol City in January with the team looking destined for relegation. He has a wealth of experience, having managed teams such as Stoke and Nottingham Forest in the past. He has managed primarily at a Championship level and has been a Premier League assistant at Sunderland.

Alan Irvine is currently in caretaker charge of the Canaries and will be at the helm for Norwich’s match against Blackburn Rovers on Saturday.
