Coventry City CEO Steve Waggott has said that a change of direction was needed at the Sky Blues.
Speaking about the dismissal of Steven Pressley, Waggott told Kieran Crowley: “This has been a very difficult decision from a personal and professional point of view, and we would like to place on record our thanks to Steven for his efforts over the last two years.
“But results over recent weeks and months, and our precarious position in the league table, means that a change of direction at first team level is needed."
