Manager Darren Sarll given the boot by Stevenage


Sky Bet League Two club Stevenage have sacked Darren Sarll as manager after a run of just one win in their last eight games.

First-team coach Nicky Shorey and captain Ronnie Henry have been placed in temporary charge and will oversee training from Monday morning.

Chairman Phil Wallace said: "Darren has given his all for us but our poor league form and points-per-game ratio of less than one since October is not something we can allow to continue.

"We haven't seen the progress expected since we strengthened the squad in January so it is time to move on."

Sky Bet have priced up former Peterborough manager Grant McCann as the early 7/1 favourite to take charge of Stevenage.
