Is the net closing in on Steve Cotterill?

Birmingham City have spoken with three managers about taking over from Steve Cotterill despite the current manager still being employed.

Reports suggest that one manager is not keen on the potential vacancy while two others are interested.

Vital Birmingham understands the above reports to be accurate.

The net seems to be closing in on Cotterill who isn’t a popular figure with the supporters and club source refused to comment when asked about the managers future.

A source close to Vital Birmingham but not officially connected to the club said – ‘I would be very surprised if he is in charge against Forest on Saturday’.
