Norwich City confirm backroom arrivals of Gary Holt, Mark Robson, Joe Royle

Norwich City confirm the appointments of three new backroom staff members.

Norwich City this afternoon confirmed the appointments of three new backroom staff members, with Gary Holt and Mark Robson joining as first-team coaches and Joe Royle becoming a football consultant.

Holt leaves his role as Falkirk manager to work under Neil Adams, while Robson retains his first-team position after stepping up from coaching the Under-21s when Adams was named as Chris Hughton's successor last season.

Royle, who played for Norwich in the 1980s, managed their bitter rivals Ipswich Town last decade but now returns to Carrow Road in an advisory role.

"Mark and Gary are two people I've worked with closely and both will bring enthusiasm, hunger and experience to the coaching team," Adams told the club website. "They have also played at the highest levels in this country.

"Joe is someone who I have played for at both Championship and Premier League level, and he has amassed a vast amount of knowledge during his time in the game."

Norwich are back in the Championship in 2014-15 after three seasons in the Premier League.
