Blackpool sack manager while Birmingham make new appointment

C:WindowsTempphp3476.tmpBlackpool have won just once this season, a 1 - 0 win over Cardiff at Bloomfield Rd a few weeks. The rest of the season has been a disaster and today Jose Riga (pictured) was sacked as Blackpool boss.

Leeds United sacked Darko Milanic on Saturday when trigger-happy owner Massimo Cellino fired the Slovenian after 32 days. Milanic will remain on the payroll as part of his contract until 2016. Bonkers.

Leeds are expected to appoint perennial caretaker manager Neil Redfearn as the new boss before the trip to Cardiff on Saturday.

Birmingham City, who lost 8 - 0 at home on Saturday have appointed Burton manager Gary Rowett as their news boss after sacking Lee Clark.

Birmingham have won just once home in the League since October 2013. On Saturday week Cardiff go to St Andrews. I'll say no more.
