Johnson axed by bottom club Yeovil

League One strugglers Yeovil Town have sacked manager Gary Johnson. Yeovil chairman John Fry said: "The decision to relieve Gary of his management duties is the hardest I have been involved in during my 23 years at Huish Park.

"I cannot speak too highly of the man who in the past brought so much success to our club. We part company on good terms and I would like personally to wish him well for the future.

"Gary took the Glovers from the Conference to the Championship and is regarded as one of the best managers in the Football League. More importantly, he is one of the most successful managers in Yeovil Town's 119 year history."
