He followed Dowie to Queens Park Rangers and Hull City as his assistant manager before joining Stafford Rangers in his first managerial post. Unfortunately the move didn’t work out and he only lasted nine games before resigning in 2011.

Flowers then joined Northampton Town as goalkeeper coach where he stayed for just over two years before briefly joining Kidderminster Harriers in 2014 as first-team coach.

He then had a brief spells with with Stuart Pearce at Nottingham Forest as goalkeeping coach and Kidderminster Harriers as one of their backroom coaching staff before joining Championship side Fulham as goalkeeping coach.

In November 2017 he was appointed as Mark Yates’ assistant manager at non-league side Solihull Moors and was promoted to manager when Yates left in June 2018. Flowers guided the club to a best-ever finish of second place in the National League as well as reaching the second round of the FA Cup but he left the Moors in January 2020 by mutual consent with the team just one point off a play-off place.

Flowers made a return to football in August 2020 when he joined newly-relegated Macclesfield Town but unfortunately the club folded and were expelled from the National League just weeks later. 

He then joined Barnet as their new manager in December 2020 but left the club by mutual consent just three months later after losing 11 of his 12 games in charge.

After spending a year out of the game he returned in November 2021 in as manager of Southern League Premier Division side Stratford Town but left after four months having secured the club’s status in the division.

In May 2023 Flowers joined Gloucester City who play in the National League North as their new manager but he left the club by mutual consent after just four months following a disappointing start to the league season and early exit from the FA Cup.

He made a return to football coaching in February 2024 when he joined current side Bromsgrove Sporting as manager.
