Colin Murphy is the Director of Development and Assistant Manager of Hull City. Murphy joined the Tigers in 2002 as Assistant Manager to Peter Taylor.

With the arrival of Phil Parkinson as Manager with Frank Barlow as his Assistant at the start of the 2006-07 season, Murphy took up the new role of Director of Development at the club - responsible for all scouting and youth development. He reverted to Assistant Manager, however, when Barlow left the club towards the end of October. After Phil Parkinson left the club, Murphy and First-team coach Phil Brown were appointed as joint caretaker managers. Phil Brown is now been appointed as permanent manager of the Tigers, with Murphy reverting back to his assistant role.

Murphy briefly managed League of Ireland side Shelbourne from November 1994 to May 1995. He took the club from the edge of the relegation zone to only missing out on the title on the final day and being beaten finalists in the FAI Cup. He then left to manage Notts County.

He has also been the international manager of Vietnam. [1]
