Posted on October 1st, 2007 by admin

Queens Park Rangers have sacked John Gregory as manager of the club.

Yesterdays 5-1 defeat at West Brom has been the final straw, bottom of the table without a win the club stated how they had to act swiftly.

“The club would like to thank John for everything he has done during a difficult period as manager,” chairman Gianni Paladini told the QPR website.

“In particular, (we would like to thank him) for saving us from relegation last season,” added Paladini.

“However, the performances and results this season have not met with our expectations. The league table does not lie.

“The club have decided to act swiftly in time to turn things around for the remainder of the season.”

Mick Harford will take temporary charge of QPR ahead of their game against Colchester on Wednesday.

Now the questions moves to who should replace Gregory?

Martin Allen, and Vialli are all rumoured to be in line and could emerge as a candidate for the job. It looks as though a replacement may already be waiting in the wings as Paladini stated

“A further announcement about the post will be made after that (the Colchester game).”
