Swansea City have sacked head coach Alan Sheehan in the wake of Saturday’s 4-1 home defeat to Ipswich Town.
Sheehan, 39, was named as Swansea boss on a permanent three-year deal in April following a successful period as caretaker from February.
Swansea were in danger of being dragged into a Championship relegation battle when Sheehan succeeded Luke Williams on a temporary basis but the Welsh club took 24 points from his 13 games in charge last term to finish 11th.
This term, however, they are 18th, with six defeats and four wins from 15 matches, and were booed off at home at half-time and full-time of the defeat to Ipswich.
