Ex-Coventry boss Adams has plenty of managerial experience

Micky Adams is ready to return to management after two months on the footballing sidelines.

And Adams, who was sacked as Coventry boss in January, is willing to drop down the divisions to achieve that aim.

The 45-year-old told BBC Sport: "I'm a football manager, I'd like to get back in and am not too bothered where it is.

"I started out with Fulham when they were 91st in the league pyramid and if I have to go back down to that level to re-invent myself then I will."

Adams, who has also managed Swansea, Brentford, Nottingham Forest, Brighton and Leicester, is confident an opening will soon arise.

"The Easter period is a time when directors and clubs look at their managerial situation and decide whether to stick with what they have got and give a manager more time or make the change," he added.

Leaving Coventry was a difficult time and I was upset Micky Adams

"I got promoted with Fulham and have since gone on to get another two promotions, so three in 11 years isn't too bad, and my CV holds up well in comparison to others.

"I think in the next couple of weeks you'll see a lot more managers struggling for their jobs, which is sad really.

"So while I'm looking for a job, the unfortunate thing with this profession is that you're waiting for someone to fail and that's not a nice thing to do."

Adams, who spent four years at Coventry as a player in the mid-eighties, was axed by the Sky Blues after they were dumped out of the FA Cup by Bristol City in January.

"Leaving Coventry was a difficult time and I was upset," he reflected.

"But I said I had left some decent players and I think new manager Iain Dowie is proving that.

"I finished eighth last season and we wouldn't have been in the relegation fight this time."
