Hull City sack Phelan as Manager

Struggling English Premier League club, Hull City have sacked their manager Mike Phelan as the club is currently at the bottom of the log.

The 54-year-old former Manchester United assistant manager took over in the summer as caretaker manager after Steve Bruce’s departure before he was appointed on a permanent basis in October.

The latest development was confirmed by the official Twitter account of the club as follows: “We would like to thank Mike for his efforts both as assistant manager and head coach over the last two years.”‎

Phelan leaves the club in the 20th position with just 13 points from 20 games following a wretched run of three points in 9 games with his last game in charge ending in a 3-1 loss to West Brom on Monday evening.
