Newly-installed Hull City manager Iain Dowie is aiming for a long-term stay at the club after replacing Phil Brown, who was sacked on Monday following his side’s defeat to Arsenal in injury-time at the weekend. The 45-year-old now has the task to save the team from relegation with only nine matches remaining in the season.

"I’d like to see my future here for the long term. It’s about me producing results – that is the game we are in,” Dowie said on the league’s official website. "It’s a squad that has been put together over a couple of years," Dowie added. "There are lots of attributes to it. I think it’s getting the best out of them which is very important. I see a good mixture of experience and energy but also people who care about the club, there is a good core of people who are good pros."

Dowie will be hoping to turn around a run of form that has seen the Tigers win just one game in their last nine Premier League matches.
