Bristol City, Michael Skubala and Charlie Boss
11 November 2026
Bristol City have decided to retain head coach Michael Skubala despite four consecutive home defeats and a slide to 17th in the Championship. Chief executive Charlie Boss confirmed the board will give him an opportunity to reverse the club’s poor home form.
The decision followed internal discussions after a 5-0 home defeat by Norwich City. Skubala, appointed in May after winning League One with Lincoln City, has overseen only two victories in Bristol City’s past ten matches. The club faces Middlesbrough after the international break.
Why It Matters
The board has publicly backed Skubala despite deteriorating results, making the club's next performances important to his managerial future.
