Reading sack Clarke

Published December 5, 2015

LONDON: Former West Bromwich Albion manager Steve Clarke has been sacked by Reading, the Championship (second tier) club announced on Friday.

The decision follows a 1-0 home loss by QPR that left them in 9th place.

Although only one point outside the playoff places, they have dropped from third position. “Following Thursday’s defeat at home to QPR, added to a recent run of poor form, the board feel that a change in manager is now necessary,” said a statement on the club’s website.
