In April 1989 the Kumar brothers, owners of a clothing chain, bought the club.Ā A rapid turnover of managers, the absence of promised investment, and a threatened mass refusal of players to renew contracts was relieved only by a victorious trip toĀ WembleyĀ in theĀ Associate Members Cup.Ā Terry CooperĀ delivered promotion, but the collapse of theBank of Credit and Commerce InternationalĀ (BCCI) put the Kumars' businesses intoĀ receivership; in November 1992 BCCI'sĀ liquidatorĀ put up for sale their 84% holding in the football club.

The club continued inĀ administrationĀ for four months, until publisherĀ David SullivanĀ bought it for Ā£700,000,Ā installed the then 23-year-oldĀ Karren BradyĀ as managing director and allowed Cooper money for signings. On the last day of the season, the team avoided relegation back to the third tier,Ā but after a poor start to the 1993–94 season Cooper was replaced byĀ Barry Fry. The change did not prevent relegation, but Fry's first full season brought promotion back to the second tier as champions, and victory in theĀ Football League TrophyĀ at Wembley, beatingĀ Carlisle UnitedĀ with aĀ Paul TaitĀ golden goal,Ā completed the "lower-league Double". After one more year, Fry was sacked to make way for the return of Trevor Francis.

Francis introduced players with top-level experience such as Manchester United skipperĀ Steve Bruce. In his second season the club narrowly missed out on aĀ play-offĀ position, followed by three years of play-off semifinal defeats.
