Ange Postecoglou has been relieved of his duties as head coach of Nottingham Forest with immediate effect, the club announced following a 3-0 defeat to Chelsea F.C.. The Australian boss had handed Taiwo Awoniyi his season debut during that loss, substituting the Nigerian striker at half-time as part of the troubled campaign. 

Appointed in early September to succeed the sacked Nuno Espírito Santo, Postecoglou managed just eight matches without registering a single victory six defeats and two draws making his stint the managerial tenure in Premier League history. In his final statement, club owner Evangelos Marinakis acted quickly, sacking Postecoglou a mere eighteen minutes after the final whistle of the Chelsea game.
