Bristol City have named former Crystal Palace chief executive Phil Alexander as their new CEO with the 60-year-old to replace Richard Gould at the start of February.
Alexander is a vastly experienced football administrator having become the longest-serving CEO in the Premier League during his 26 years at Selhurst Park. He left south London in May and has since been working as a consultant for Palace and League One Wycombe Wanderers.
Gould is leaving on January 31, following the closure of the transfer window, to take up a similar role with the England and Wales Cricket Board after a successful time in charge at his boyhood club, operating as a great mediator within Ashton Gate.
