Hereford United sack boss Jamie Pitman

Hereford United have parted company with manager Jamie Pitman after two years in charge of the League Two side.

The club have made the decision to let go of the 36-year-old, who has led the side to just two points above the relegation zone this season.

Chairman David Keyte told the club's official website: "Although everybody has been working very hard, we felt we needed someone fresh to get things going for the remaining 12 matches."

The club also confirmed that they are expected to make an announcement regarding Pitman's replacement later today.
