Career
After leaving Hibernian at the end of the 1996-1997 season, Wright returned to Raith, spending around fifteen months in his second spell in Kirkcaldy. In November 1998, Wright moved to Morton and spent a similar length of time before a short spell with Stenhousemuir at the end of the 1999-1900 season. Wright then moved to Cowdenbeath for the start of the 2000-2001 season and spent three years as a player in his final playing spell.
Wright was appointed player/manager of Cowdenbeath in March 2002 but was on a five-man shortlist for the Raith Rovers manager job just two months later.
After the job went to Antonio Calderón, Wright carried on and picked up the Second Division Manager of the Month award for January 2003. Wright was sacked in October 2004, despite winning his last match and moving the club up to seventh in the league.
He now works as an SFA development officer for Midlothian Council. Dundee Hibernian.
