Yeovil have confirmed that they have sacked manager Russell Slade after a weekend of uncertainty.
Slade goes for what is suspected to be off-field matters, with the club having won four straight matches on the pitch to dramatically lessen the possibilities of relegation. A club statement merely confirmed the departure, before stating that no further comment would be made.
Assistant boss Steve Thompson, who has been with the club for 11 years, takes charge in the interim and has been placed as favourite for the full time job by bookmakers. He had a previous stint as permanent manager during 2005/6, winning 14 of 41 matches.
