Steve Harrison has come in for high praise from City caretaker manager Andy Thorn.
Speaking about Harrison to the Sunday Mercury, Thorn said: "Harry has been massive.
"He was my coach at Crystal Palace when we had our successful years and he's absolutely top-drawer, one of the best I've ever worked with.
"I might be the one doing the chat before and after matches but his input has been crucial.
"I'm always bouncing things off him and he has the total respect of all the players, so he's a massive part of what we are trying to do here.
"The players had to take a lot on board very quickly because we didn't just want to stop the slide we wanted to introduce a totally new style of play. That wouldn't have been possible without a man of Harry's quality."
