PNE face Birmingham City on April 1 - at St Andrew's
Gary Rowett is glad to be back at Birmingham City - on an interim basis - and has issued a rallying call, with Preston North End the next opponents at St Andrew's. After the international break the Blues head to Queens Park Rangers, while PNE host Rotherham United. But, three days later, North End go to Birmingham in a game of great significance for both teams. Rowett, who has returned to his old club to stand in for Tony Mowbray, is tasked with keeping Birmingham in the Championship.
That is the challenge I wanted to take on and I am really excited about that challenge. I think it is very simple and clear for me - give the players clear direction, try to give them a way to play that builds their confidence and allows them to go and show what they are very, very good at. And try to inspire the crowd, to help the team because that's part of this club. 'I said to the players and staff, that I have been in this position three times before.
