We’re only 14 games into the 2023/24 Championship season - yet there have already been multiple managerial changes in the second tier.
At Sunderland, Tony Mowbray’s side appear to have built on last season’s run into the play-offs, while just over a year has passed since the 59-year-old replaced Alex Neil as the Black Cats’ head coach.
Here are the longest-serving managers in the Championship and how long they have been at their current clubs:
