Tottenham sack manager Rehanne Skinner after nine-game losing run

Tottenham have sacked manager Rehanne Skinner following a nine-game losing run in the Women's Super League.

Spurs made a bright start to the campaign, winning three of their first five games, however they have failed to pick up a single point since their 8-0 rout of Brighton in October. Their latest defeat came against Liverpool on Sunday, with Emma Koivisto and Missy Bo Kearns on target for the hosts at Prenton Park after Rosella Ayane had fired Tottenham into an early lead.

The result means Spurs remain 10th in the WSL, just two places and two points above the drop zone ahead of a crunch clash with bottom-of-the-table Leicester on Wednesday. And the club have now confirmed Skinner has been relieved of her duties as Head Coach.
