Before Moore: What are Huddersfield Town’s last 5 managers up to now?

We looked at what Huddersfield Town’s five previous managers are up to now.

2019/20 SQUAD NUMBERS CONFIRMED - News - Huddersfield Town

 

At Huddersfield Town, a new era has begun with the hiring of Darren Moore as manager.

Moore replaced Neil Warnock at the John Smith’s Stadium, with the club opting to part company with Warnock in order to make a more long-term appointment.

The 49-year-old led Sheffield Wednesday to promotion from League One last season before departing in June after a disagreement with chairman Dejphon Chansiri, and he will be hoping to help the Terriers to survival once again this campaign.

It was a turbulent season for Town last year, with Danny Schofield and Mark Fotheringham both dismissed before Warnock led the club to safety following his appointment in February.

Moore will be keen to bring some much-needed stability to the club, but as he settles into life in West Yorkshire, we looked at what Huddersfield’s five previous managers are up to now.

Neil Warnock

Warnock did an outstanding job to guide Huddersfield to survival last season, and the Terriers had enjoyed a decent start to the new campaign, but chief executive Jake Edwards said the “timing was right” to make a change when the 74-year-old left the club in September.

Mark Fotheringham

Fotheringham was handed his first managerial role by Huddersfield last September.

The 39-year-old had previously had spells as assistant manager at Karlsruher, Cowdenbeath, Ingolstadt and Hertha Berlin, working with former Fulham boss Felix Magath at the latter.

Danny Schofield

Schofield previously had spells as an academy coach and caretaker manager at Huddersfield before being appointed permanently in July 2022 following the resignation of Carlos Corberan.

It was an incredibly disappointing stint for Schofield and after winning just one, drawing one and losing seven of his nine games in charge, the 43-year-old was dismissed in September.

Carlos Corberan

Corberan did an excellent job at the John Smith’s Stadium following his appointment in July 2020, and his shock resignation last summer was a huge blow to the club.

The Spaniard, who had previously worked under Marcelo Bielsa at Leeds United, led the club to an underwhelming 20th-placed finish in his first year in charge, but incredibly, his side finished third the following season, losing to Nottingham Forest in the play-off final.

Danny Cowley

After impressive spells with Concord Rangers, Braintree Town and Lincoln City, Cowley made the move to Huddersfield in September 2019.

The Terriers had endured a dismal start to life back in the Championship following relegation from the Premier League the previous season, and they were winless at the time of Cowley’s arrival.
