At the end of the month, Ronny, who took over as Birmingham's manager, has led the team to five Championship matches so far, but the results are saddening, with only one draw and four defeats, and the team's rankings have plummeted from the sixth place at the beginning to the 18th place now. Although the fans have not blamed Ronnie for the moment, the dissatisfaction has turned to the team's CEO Quirk, accusing him of changing the coach without any reason, leading to the deterioration of the team's situation.
Ronnie's return to English coaching was supposed to be a joy after leaving USL side D.C. United last month. When he took over, the team had a decent record, having won consecutive matches against Huddersfield and West Bromwich Albion, and finished sixth in the league, which was expected to be in contention for promotion. However, after Ronnie took over, the team suffered consecutive losses, first to Middlesbrough, Husband Town and Southampton, and only stopped the losing trend a little bit when they drew 2-2 in the home match with Yeatswich. However, in the latest round of matches, the team lost 1-3 to New Zealand, and the league ranking slipped further to the 18th place.
