Stoke City have sacked manager Gary Rowett after just eight months in charge.
Rowett left Derby County to take over at the bet365 Stadium in May, with Stoke having been relegated from the Premier League.
The club intend to make a new appointment “as swiftly as possible” but have placed Rory Delap, Kevin Russell and Andy Quy in charge of first-team affairs in the interim.
Stoke required a 78th-minute goal from Peter Crouch to avoid a shock FA Cup third-round exit at the hands of Shrewsbury Town on Saturday, but the 1-1 draw – a fourth straight match without a win – proved the final straw.
