Sean Dyche has been sacked by Nottingham Forest after just 114 days in charge, with the club now closing in on unwanted Premier League history as they prepare to appoint a fourth manager of the season.
Forest moved quickly following the decision, with the change leaving them on the brink of becoming the first club in Premier League history to use four different permanent managers in a single campaign.
Dyche had only arrived 114 days earlier but has paid the price for a run of results that left the club in trouble, and the board has opted for another reset as the fight to stay up continues.
The dismissal also adds another chapter to Forest’s turbulent season in the dugout, with the club already having turned to multiple coaches in an attempt to halt the slide.
With Dyche now gone, Forest are expected to move on to a new appointment imminently, a step that would confirm their place in the record books as the fourth managerial change of the same Premier League season.
