Norwich sack Manning after seventh home league loss
Norwich City dismissed Liam Manning after seven straight home losses, leaving the team bottom of the Championship with nine points and fan protests escalating.
- On Saturday Norwich City confirmed they have parted company with head coach Liam Manning after a late 2-1 defeat to Leicester City at Carrow Road, the club said.
- The poor home record — Norwich City have lost all seven home Championship matches this season, prompting supporter chants including `we want Knapper out` and `sack the board`.
- The match turned when Mathias Kvistgaarden scored in the 62nd minute, but Bobby De Cordova-Reid equalised 10 minutes later and Jordan James headed a stoppage-time winner for Leicester City.
- First-Team coach Ryan Garry will take charge on an interim basis, supported by Tony Roberts and Nick Stanley, while Chris Hogg and James Krause have left and the club hopes to appoint a new manager by 22 November.
- Manning had been appointed in June on a four-year deal after less than two years at Bristol City, but he conceded uncertainty before his exit as Norwich must recover form after 15 matches.
