• Scott Parker takes charge on caretaker basis
Claudio Ranieri has been sacked by Fulham, with the club’s directors and supporters having lost confidence in him. The final straw for the manager came in the relegation battle at Southampton on Wednesday, when the team lost 2-0 and the travelling fans chanted “you don’t know what you’re doing” in his direction.
The vice-chairman, Tony Khan, was at St Mary’s for a result that took Ranieri’s Fulham Premier League record to P16 W3 D3 L10 since he replaced Slavisa Jokanovic in mid-November and left the team 10 points off Premier League safety with 10 games to play.
