BREAKING: Scott Brown Sacked As Fleetwood Town FC Manager—English professional association football club, FLEETWOOD have sacked manager Scott Brown after 16 months in charge.
It comes after the League One side picked up just one point from their opening six games.
A club statement read: “Fleetwood Town can confirm Head Coach Scott Brown has left the club with immediate effect.
“Following a difficult run of results the club reluctantly felt now is the right time to make a change to the First Team management.
“Assistant Head Coach Steven Whittaker will also depart and everyone at the club would like to place on record their thanks to Scott and Steven for their hard work and professionalism during his time at the club.
“The search for his replacement will begin immediately and we will issue a further update on the first team staff in due course.”
Fleetwood’s winless start to the campaign sees them down in 23rd place in the League One table.
But some football fans have condemned the decision to get rid of him.
That is because in his first season he guided them to a mid-table finish and the fifth round of the FA Cup – a club record.
Reacting on social media, one person said: “Well harsh, that.”
