Probert Leaves Town For Liverpool Role
Friday, 11th Jul 2025 14:23
Town’s director of football operations Gary Probert has left the club to take on a role at Liverpool, TWTD understands.
Probert joined the Blues in November 2021 having previously worked under Town chairman and CEO Mark Ashton at Bristol City.
Prior to his eight-year spell with the Robins, Probert was county development manager with Gloucestershire FA and before that was youth development manager and further education manager at Forest Green Rovers between 2005 and 2007.
Probert’s position at Town saw him oversee recruitment, the academy, analysis, U21s and loans programme, playing a pivotal role in the development of emerging talent within the youth set-up.
In May, Probert, who has a BSc in Sports Coaching from the University of Wales Institute, an UEFA A Licence and an FA Advanced Youth Award, graduated from the FA’s Technical Directors Course in May alongside Blues academy director Dmitri Halajko.

I actually don’t think it’s a bad thing that Ashton’s old back room staff are being refreshed a bit.||

We get relegated and all of a sudden the backroom staff leaves. Can't beat a bit of loyalty. !!!!!||

Good luck to him, can't fault the bloke for stepping up to a club like Liverpool; if they wanted him, it means he was good.||
