Mark Robins: Coventry City sack manager

Coventry City have parted company with manager Mark Robins following a poor run of results.

Robins led Coventry to the League One title in his first season at the club, but they have struggled in the Championship this season.

The Sky Blues have won just three of their last 15 league games, and their recent form has seen them slip into the relegation zone.

Coventry have now appointed former Blackpool boss Michael Appleton as their new manager.

Robins is a popular figure at Coventry, but the club's poor form this season has led to his departure.

He will be remembered for leading the Sky Blues to promotion in 2019, but his time at the club has ultimately ended in disappointment.

Coventry's poor form this season has led to increasing pressure on Robins, and his departure was widely expected.

The Sky Blues have won just three of their last 15 league games, and they have slipped into the relegation zone.

Robins has been unable to turn things around, and his sacking is seen as a necessary step to try to save the club's season.

Michael Appleton is a good appointment for Coventry. He is a young, hungry manager who has a good track record of success.

Appleton led Blackpool to the League One play-offs last season, and he has a good understanding of the Championship.

He will be expected to get Coventry out of the relegation zone and up the table.

Coventry have a tough task ahead of them. They are currently in the relegation zone, and they have a difficult run of fixtures coming up.

However, the Sky Blues have a good squad, and they should be able to avoid relegation.

Appleton is a good manager, and he will be able to get the best out of the players.
