COVENTRY City Football Club today relieved Chris Coleman of his managerial duties with immediate effect.The decision was agreed at a board meeting last night.
The board stressed that the decision was not a knee jerk reaction to Sunday's match but was made after assessing the last two years and reflected the fact that the team's form deteriorated rapidly towards the end of the season for the second year running.
Chairman Ray Ranson met with Coleman today and then informed the first team squad of the board's decision.
He said: "It is true I enjoyed a very close working relationship with Chris and it's been a pleasure to work withhim since his arrival in February 2008.
The board would like to place on record their thanks for his efforts over two and a half years.
