Blackburn Rovers sack manager Sam Allardyce

Blackburn have announced they have sacked manager Sam Allardyce.

Allardyce is the latest casualty in the manager chops to have been made so far this season . Allardyce was relieved of his duties along with his assistant Neil McDonald by the club's new owners, the Venky's Group from India.

Rovers have lost three of their last five games, including a 2-1 defeat by his former club Bolton on Sunday.

"I am very shocked and disappointed to be leaving Blackburn," said Allardyce in a statement released through the League Managers' Association.
