15 December 2014 18:16

Reading have sacked manager Nigel Adkins in the wake of Saturday's humiliating 6-1 defeat at Birmingham.

Adkins, who took the reins at the Madejski Stadium in March 2013, leaves with the Royals in 16th position in the Sky Bet Championship following the heavy loss against Gary Rowett's men.

The Royals have also confirmed the exits of assistant manager Andy Crosby and first-team coach Dean Wilkins.
