Wigan sack Uwe Rosler after slipping into Championship relegation zone

Wigan have announced they have sacked manager Uwe Rosler after they slipped into the Championship relegation zone.

Latics, who were FA Cup winners just 18 months ago, have decided to act after a run of just one win since August saw them drop into the second tier's bottom three.

Last Friday night's 3-1 defeat at local rivals Bolton, which saw Wigan concede three times in 11 second-half minutes, left Rosler "embarrassed'' and he accused his players of "giving up'' in what proved to be the final match of his 11-month reign.
