Hull City

Hull City have made ‘progress’ this week in their hunt for a new boss, as detailed in a report by Hull Live. The club are being patient as they search for Shota Arveladze’s replacement. Former left-back Andy Dawson remains in caretaker charge.

Rotherham boss Matt Taylor has delivered his verdict on the Tigers and has said in his pre-game press conference: “We watched them last night (against Blackpool) and have watched their last few games. It has been a difficult run of games for them, barring the result they picked up last night. Generally, their principles and shape hasn’t changed too much, so we have an idea of what to expect this weekend.”

Huddersfield Town

Danny Schofield, who has become the new manager of Doncaster Rovers, believes his time at Huddersfield has made him stronger. He has told the Yorkshire Post: “I’m a big believer that things happen for a reason sometimes. The way I left my previous club was difficult to deal with initially but when this opportunity came up, it was a case of this might be what’s meant to be for me. I’m really looking forward to the opportunity.”

Ex-Terriers boss Carlos Corberan is in the frame for the West Brom job and the Baggies are said to be edging closer to making a decision. The Express & Star have reported that the Spaniard has been interviewed and is ‘keen’ on a return to England.
