Forest Green Rovers and head coach Troy Deeney have today decided to part company.

Dale Vince, Chairman of Forest Green Rovers said: “These are decisions nobody likes to make, but we have acted this way to give FGR the best possible chance of improving results and climbing the league table. We wish Troy all the best for the future and thank him for his efforts." 

The search for a new head coach will begin straightaway. Dan Connor will take charge of the team for Saturday’s match at Gillingham.
