Jon, of course, has been with Gary every step of the way since May 2003 when they were originally appointed as joint-managers before he later took a step back to leave Gary in sole charge.

Mark has had two long stints with us either side of a spell within Birmingham City's coaching structure and both Steve, as goalkeeping coach, and Richard, as our sports therapist, have been with the Club for many, many years too, all performing their duties with great professionalism.

As a the club, we thank each of them for their hard work and dedication and for playing their part in a truly remarkable transformation of the Club and sincerely wish them well for the future.
