Stephen Kenny wouldn’t mind if his assistants came in threes – but now he’s seeking a fourth following the appointment of John Eustace as Birmingham City boss.

Eustace (42) takes on his first permanent role as a league manager after the Championship club moved within 24 hours to source a replacement for the sacked Lee Bowyer.
