Events edit

On 15 November 2011 manager Nigel Pearson left the club to take up an appointment at former club Leicester City, taking with him backroom staff Craig Shakespeare and Steve Walsh.[4] Hull City appointed Nick Barmby as caretaker manager.[5] On 18 November it was announced that Steve Wigley would be rejoining the club's backroom staff as first-team coach.[6] On 6 January 2012 Barmby announced that he would be retiring as a player.[7] On 10 January 2012 he was appointed as permanent manager of the club.[8]

On 31 March 2012, during a match against Coventry City, captain Jack Hobbs suffered a rupture to his anterior cruciate ligament, an injury which at the time was set to keep him out of action for up to eight months.[9][10] As a result of this Andy Dawson took over the role of captain for the remainder of the season.[11]

On 1 May 2012, in a statement by club owners Assem and Ehab Allam, it was confirmed that a consultancy agreement with Adam Pearson had been terminated.[12] A week later, Barmby was sacked as manager after publicly criticising the club's owners in an interview given to a local newspaper.[13] The termination of his contract was ratified after an appeal on 24 May 2012.[14]

At a press conference on 8 June 2012 it was announced that Steve Bruce had been appointed as the new manager on a three-year contract.[15] Subsequently, first team coaches Steve Wigley and Stuart Watkiss left the club.[16]
