Gary Bowyer: Dundee appoint former Salford boss as manager | Football News


Dundee have appointed Gary Bowyer as their new manager alongside assistant Billy Barr.

The 50-year-old, who was out of work after leaving Salford City in May, replaces Mark McGhee after his short-term deal ended at the end of last season.

Bowyer started his management career with Blackburn Rovers in the Championship before spells with Blackpool and Bradford.

He then took over as interim boss at Salford City last March before that appointment was made permanent that summer.

However, Bowyer could only lead the club to a 10th-placed finish in League Two, finishing seven points off a play-off spot, and was dismissed by owners Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs and David Beckham.
