Anthony Mark Mowbray (born 22 November 1963) is an English football manager and former footballer who was most recently manager of Birmingham City. Mowbray played for Middlesbrough, Celtic and Ipswich Town as a defender.

He began his coaching career with Ipswich Town and took his first managerial job at Scottish Premier League side Hibernian, where he won the Scottish Football Writers' Association Manager of the Year award in his first season. He moved on to West Bromwich Albion in 2006, where he won the Football League Championship in 2008, but then suffered relegation from the Premier League the following year. Mowbray was then appointed as manager of Celtic, but was dismissed after nine months for poor results.

Mowbray subsequently took the manager's role at another of his former clubs, Middlesbrough.[3] After a poor start to the 2013–14 season, Mowbray left Middlesbrough in October 2013.[4] After a spell with Coventry City, he was appointed Blackburn Rovers manager in February 2017. He was unable to prevent Rovers being relegated to League One, but then won promotion back to the Championship at the first attempt.
