Last updated 8th Nov 2025
Norwich City have sacked head coach Liam Manning following today's 2-1 defeat to Leicester City.
The 40 year-old was only appointed to the role in June and signed a four year contract with the club in the summer.
This decision comes with the Canaries sitting second bottom of the Championship and yet to record a home win this season, across all competitions.
Out of 15 games in the championship they're won two, drawn three and lost 10. Their win came in late August.
Assistant head coach Chris Hogg and first-team coach analyst James Krause have also left the club.
First-team coach Ryan Garry will take charge of the first team now on an interim basis, as the club works to appoint a new head coach.
He'll be supported by goalkeeper coach Tony Roberts and set piece coach Nick Stanley.
The Canaries next face Birmingham City on the 22nd of November, following the international break.
"We have been left with no choice"
Sporting director Ben Knapper said: “We have tried absolutely everything possible to work through this incredibly challenging period but, unfortunately, given the recent run of results and performances, we have been left with no choice other than to make a change at this stage.
“Liam and his staff worked tirelessly to move our football club forward. They are all fundamentally good people and we wish them the very best in whatever comes next.
“We very much understand the frustration and criticism from our supporters at this stage. So far, results and performances on the pitch haven’t been good enough. We accept that responsibility, but it’s now imperative that we start to repair the relationship with our supporters and do everything we can to give them something to get behind.”
