City Chief Executive Officer Charlie Boss said: “I would like to thank Gerhard and Bernd for their hard work over the past nine months, and we wish them all the best.” “Roy’s appointment is about more than the results of the next seven games. Over the remainder of the season, he will help us set the standards and values at the club that we will need to be successful going forwards.” “Roy is a vastly experienced coach who has achieved and won at the highest level.

He will support me, our players and our football staff as we build towards achieving our potential.” “We are in the process of appointing a Sporting Director who will have a direct input into the recruitment of a new permanent Head Coach.” It marks a remarkable second spell with Bristol City for the former England boss, who briefly managed the club back in 1982.
