SWINDON Town have dismissed head coach Jody Morris following a poor run of form.
The 44-year-old has parted company with the Robins after just three months in charge.
Morris managed just four wins from his 18 games at the helm, leading to the club taking action.
The former Chelsea midfielder has now left the County Ground, along with his assistant Ed Brand.

In a statement, Swindon said: '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.'
Steve Mildenhall and Gavin Gunning will take charge of Swindon's final game of the season at home to Crawley Town, next Monday.
