Manager sacked after defeat to Preston
Iain Dowie has parted company with Coventry City after less than a year at the club.
Dowie has been relieved of his duties with immediate effect along with Bob Dowie and Tim Flowers.
The Sky Blues have been in miserable form of late, losing five of their last six games in the Championship.
They did crush Barnsley 4-0 at home last weekend but then lost 1-0 to struggling Preston on Saturday.
That proved to be the final straw for club bosses, who have decided a change is needed if Coventry are to move forward.
Coventry have slipped to 19th in the Championship table and are now just four points above the relegation zone.
Frankie Bunn and John Harbin will take charge of first-team affairs for Tuesday's clash with Cardiff.
Dowie was appointed Coventry boss on 19th February last year and made an encouraging start with a number of wins.
However, Coventry fell back to 17th place by the end of last season and have been unable to mount a push for promotion this term.
