Troy Deeney has been sacked after six matches in charge of Forest Green Rovers, just 29 days into the job. Deeney, who was in his first managerial role, drew criticism after publicly blasting his players following defeat at home to Harrogate last Saturday.
The former Watford striker joined League Two Forest Green as a player-coach in the summer before being promoted to manager after the club’s owner, Dale Vince, sacked David Horseman, the former Southampton assistant coach who was also handed his first senior management role.
