Last updated : 18 May 2015 By Covsupport News Service

Tony Mowbray has signed a two year deal to become the next permanent manager of Coventry City.

Mowbray had been on a short term contract but has now agreed and signed a two year contract which should allow him to impliment the structures that he wants.

Coventry City CEO Steve Waggott said in a press statement: : “We’re absolutely delighted that Tony has signed a long-term contract with the club.

“Following the club’s final game of the season against Crawley, the club’s owners and the board had talks with Tony on where he wanted to take the club and the blueprint needed to get us there.

“We’ve worked on a lot of details with Tony and, over the coming days, we hope we can announce further changes in terms of the club’s infrastructure. That will mean there is a better structure at Coventry City for Tony to achieve his, and all of our, future aims and ambitions.

“Ever since Tony joined us in March, we’ve been extremely impressed by his experience and demeanour, and we are looking forward to a busy summer and what will hopefully be a successful season.

“He was the overwhelming choice as manager among supporters and many I have spoken to over the past couple of weeks have said securing his services would show a real statement of intent from the club.

“We’ve made that statement now by bringing him in and we see this as a fresh start in taking the club forward.”
