Sun Jul 19, 2020 12:54 pm

Huddersfield Town has today relieved Danny Cowley of his duties as Manager.


Assistant Manager Nicky Cowley will also depart the Club immediately.

Huddersfield Town Chairman Phil Hodgkinson commented:

“I would like to place my thanks on record to Danny and Nicky for their hard work and dedication towards securing the Club’s place in the Sky Bet Championship for next season. That was the clear priority when they were appointed in September and we are very grateful that has been achieved.

“We all wish Danny and Nicky all the best for the future and they leave with my best wishes in their future endeavours.

“However, we have made this decision in the belief that, in the long term, it is in the best interests of the Club as we move forward. We have a different vision for the way we operate the Club, and how our ambitions can be achieved.”

The Club are not seeking applications for the vacant position.

Sounds like they might give the gaffer gig to Mark Hudson then if it's an internal appointment as they aren't seeking any applications....unless they have someone signed up already

Unreal, look where they were when he was appointed compared to now. One of the best young managers in the football league, I hope they land somewhere good.

Some clubs owners deserve relegation. Shocking decision he did a very good job given the circumstances. They will drop next year and will deserve it
