QUEENS Park Rangers sacked manager Neil Warnock on Sunday after a dramatic slump in form that left it without a win in its last eight Premier League matches and on the edge of the relegation zone.
Warnock, who was appointed in March 2010 and won 33 of his 84 matches in charge, guided the London club back to the Premier League for the first time in 15 years last season.
"Sadly a recent run of poor form has seen us slip alarmingly down the table and the board felt it was the right time to make a change," Malaysian owner Tony Fernandes said. "Neil Warnock has acted with honesty, professionalism and integrity throughout his time at the club and I would personally like to thank him for his significant contribution to Queens Park Rangers over the last 22 months. I genuinely wish him all the very best for the future and he will always be welcome back at Loftus Road."
Vice-chairman Amit Bhatia said the announcement was made "with a heavy heart".
