Ex-Chelsea assistant manager Jody Morris has lost his job as manager of Swindon Town.

Morris, who was a highly rated coach at the Blues, was unable to impress during three months in charge of the League Two club.

With Swindon in 10th place in the league, the club have made a change as they look to hire a permanent manager in the summer.

Swindon have one game remaining and will not be making the playoffs.

Remarkably, Morris only won FOUR out of 18 games in charge, drawing four and losing ten.

His final game saw Swindon throw away a 1-0 lead to lose 2-1 to Crewe.

A statement on Swindon's official website read: “Swindon Town can today confirm it has parted company with First-Team Head Coach, Jody Morris, and his assistant Ed Brand.

“Morris, 44, was appointed at the end of January in what was his first senior management role in the game, and was later followed to the County Ground by assistant, Ed Brand, in early March.

“We would like to thank both Jody and Ed for their contribution and efforts since joining the football club, and wish them all the very best in the future.

“Our aim when they took over was to push on and finish the second half of the season strongly, but as a club, we haven't achieved our objectives.

“With just one more league game remaining before we reach the conclusion of the season, we feel now is the right time to take a fresh approach as we look to bring success back to this great club for 2023/24.

“Work is well underway to find our next manager, with an announcement in due course."
