Vorlage:Other people Vorlage:BLP sources Vorlage:Use British English Vorlage:Use dmy dates Vorlage:Infobox football biography Mark Rosslyn Bowen (born 7 December 1963) is a Welsh football coach and former footballer. He is the current manager of Championship club Reading.[1]

He was a left-back who played for Tottenham Hotspur, Norwich City, West Ham United, Shimizu S-Pulse, Charlton Athletic, Wigan Athletic and Reading. He also played international football for Wales. Since retiring in 1999, he has worked as assistant to former international teammate Mark Hughes with Wales, Blackburn Rovers, Manchester City, Fulham, Queens Park Rangers, Stoke City and Southampton.


Mark Rosslyn Bowen (*7. Dezember 1963 in Neath, Wales), ist ein ehemaliger wallisischer Fußballer und jetziger Fußballtrainer. Derzeit ist er Manager von Reading in der Championship[2].

Er war ein Linksverteidiger, der für Tottenham Hotspur, Norwich City, West Ham United, Shimizu S-Pulse, Charlton Athletic, Wigan Athletic und Reading aktiv war. International absolvierte er 41 Spiele für die walisische Nationalmannschaft.

Playing career

Bowen joined Tottenham Hotspur as an apprentice in 1980, signing his first professional contract in December 1981. First-team opportunities were limited for him at White Hart Lane and he made only a handful of appearances for the club though he was an unused substitute in the second leg of the 1984 UEFA Cup Final. In the summer of 1987, Norwich City manager Ken Brown paid Spurs £90,000 for Bowen, who was one of a number of players that Norwich signed from Tottenham during that period. He made his debut for the Canaries on 19 August 1987 in a league match against Southampton at Carrow Road. Mark Bowen scored his first goal for Norwich City against West Ham United on New Year's Day 1988 in a 4–1 win at home in the first division.[2]

Bowen spent much of his first season at Norwich playing on the left of midfield, but when Tony Spearing left the club to join Leicester City in July 1988, Bowen made the left-back spot his own for the next eight years. As well as carrying out his defensive duties in a consistent and dependable manner, Bowen was a threat going forward and in the 1989–90 season he finished as the team's joint top league goalscorer. That season, he also collected the Barry Butler memorial trophy when the supporters voted him Norwich City player of the year.

On 8 April 1989, Bowen was involved in an unusual incident in a match against Coventry City at Highfield Road. Goalkeeper Bryan Gunn was sent off for arguing incessantly with the referee after he had awarded Coventry a penalty kick. Bowen went in goal to replace him, only for Coventry's specialist penalty taker Brian Kilcline to miss the spot-kick by putting it wide. Coventry won 2–1.

Bowen was a key member of the Norwich team that finished third in the inaugural season of the FA Premier League (1992–93) and qualified for the UEFA Cup as a result. In the second round of the UEFA Cup run, Bowen scored one of the most famous goals in Norwich City's history when his header put Norwich 2–0 up in the away leg against FC Bayern Munich. Norwich won the match 2–1 and remained as the only British club to beat FC Bayern at their own stadium until Chelsea defeated Bayern at the Allianz Arena in the 2012 UEFA Champions League Final. Arsenal later did the same, though they lost their tie on aggregate following defeat at home.

At the end of the 1994–95 season, Norwich were relegated from the Premiership. The season that followed was one of the worst in the club's history and it was Bowen's last at Carrow Road. The club was in a desperate financial position and came close to going out of business.Vorlage:Citation needed Gary Megson replaced Martin O'Neill as manager halfway through the season and he and Bowen did not enjoy a good relationship.Vorlage:Citation needed Bowen criticised Megson's tactics in the local newspaper and was dropped from the team by Megson when he had played 399 matches for the club. He was not given the opportunity for a 400th. At the end of the season, as the club began trying to pick up the pieces after chairman Robert Chase had left the club close to bankruptcy, Bowen was one of the players released in order to reduce the club's outgoings.Vorlage:Citation needed

Bowen was highly regarded by the Canaries' fans. For example, in 2002, in a survey to mark the club's centenary, Norwich fans voted Bowen the club's best ever left-back and put him in the club's 'all-time XI'. He is also a member of the Norwich City F.C. Hall of Fame. He won 35 Welsh caps while at Norwich, meaning that he holds the record for being the club's most capped player. He was nicknamed 'Taff' because of his Welsh connections and also 'Albert Tatlock' because of his frequent complaining.

After leaving Carrow Road, Bowen signed on a free transfer for West Ham United making his debut appearance on 21 August 1996 in a 1–1 home draw against Coventry City. He made 20 appearances for The Hammers in all competitions scoring only one goal in a 2–0 away win against Nottingham Forest on 21 September 1996.[3] In January 1997 he signed for Shimizu S-Pulse in Japan, again on a free transfer, before signing for Charlton Athletic shortly after the start of the 1997–98 season. He was a member of the Addicks side that won promotion to the Premiership at the end of that season after a memorable play-off final against Sunderland at Wembley ended 4–4. Charlton won the penalty shoot-out, with Bowen scoring one of the spot-kicks. For a while during his time at Norwich Bowen had been the team's penalty taker but had enjoyed little success. He scored just twice from the spot for Norwich, against Notts County and Queens Park Rangers respectively.

That 1998 play-off final proved to be the last high-point of Bowen's playing career. He left Charlton a year later having suffered a serious injury and after trials with Bristol City and Oxford United he played briefly for Wigan Athletic and Reading.

Coaching career

Bowen began his coaching career while at Reading as Mark Hughes made him a member of his coaching staff for the Welsh national side. He then linked up with former Norwich teammate Steve Bruce when he was manager first at Crystal Palace, then at Birmingham City. In 2002, under Bruce and Bowen's stewardship, Birmingham won promotion to the Premier League via the play-offs. They won the final against Norwich City in a penalty shoot-out after the match had ended 1–1. Bowen remained at Birmingham for two more years before leaving in the summer of 2004.[4] Shortly afterwards in August 2004 Bowen returned to the Wales national team set-up.[5][6] The move caused some controversy as Hughes appointed Bowen without the knowledge of the Football Association of Wales.[7]

On 16 September 2004, Hughes was appointed manager at Blackburn Rovers and Bowen joined him as assistant manager.[8][9] Whilst at Blackburn, Bowen was linked with the managerial vacancy at both Norwich City and Swansea City.[10][11] In June 2008, Bowen followed Hughes to Manchester City as assistant manager, and left the club with him in December 2009.[12][13] Whilst at Manchester City the club was taken over by the wealthy Abu Dhabi United Group.[14]

In August 2010, Bowen again followed Hughes, to become his assistant at Fulham.[15] Following Hughes departure in June 2011, Bowen remained with Fulham but was removed from assistant manager duties and began to work with the Academy.Vorlage:Citation needed Bowen worked with Hughes at Queens Park Rangers for a year until Hughes was sacked in November 2012.[16] Bowen and coach Eddie Niedzwiecki took caretaker charge of QPR for one match against Manchester United in a 3–1 defeat.[17]

Bowen then joined Hughes at Stoke City in June 2013.[18] He remained at Stoke until January 2018.[19]

After Hughes was appointed Southampton manager in March 2018, Bowen followed him to St. Mary's, initially on a contract for the remainder of the 2017–18 season. In May 2018, after Southampton's Premier League status was confirmed, it was announced that Bowen had signed a new long-term contract.[20] On 3 December 2018, he was dismissed following the sacking of Mark Hughes.[21]

On 27 March 2019, Bowen was hired as a technical consultant for Reading.[22] He was announced as the club's sporting director on 21 August,[23] and succeeded José Gomes as manager on 14 October.[1][24] Prior to being appointed manager he had been tasked with drawing up a shortlist of candidates for the job he eventually took.[25] On 17 January 2020, Bowen extended his contract until the end of the 2020-2021 season.[26]
