Urgently! Lampard sacked as Everton manager

Everton head coach Frank Lampard has been sacked from his post, according to Dailymail.co.uk.

Frank Lampard

The former England midfielder was sacked after losing his eighth in nine games - this time 2-0 to West Ham. As the club looks for a new manager, club legend Leighton Baines, who coaches the Under-18s, and Under-21s head coach Paul Tate must oversee the day-to-day running of the first team.

Note that Everton have a day off today. The news will be reported to the team, obviously, already on Tuesday.
