Your support makes all the difference.Nottingham Forest have sacked manager Mark Warburton, the Championship club have announced.
The decision comes in the aftermath of Forest’s 1-0 defeat at home to Sunderland who before the game were bottom of the table.
Forest have struggled on the whole during December, losing five of their seven games, drawing one and winning the other, results that have seen the club drop to 14th in the Championship – only nine points ahead of the relegation zone.
A club statement read: "Academy Manager Gary Brazil has been appointed Caretaker Manager and has assumed his new duties this morning.
“The club would like to thank Mark, David and Frank for all their efforts during their time at The City Ground.”
The 55-year-old was appointed in March of this year, signing a two-and-a-half-year deal and helped Forest avoid the drop last season.
