The Whites only sit outside the relegation zone on goal difference, and extended their winless run to seven games in their 1-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest on Sunday. That damaging loss at the City Ground proved the final straw for Jesse Marsch, as the American was relieved of his duties on Monday ahead of another important week.
