Shrewsbury Town draw sees Gary Rowett sacked by Stoke
This past weekend's FA Cup stalemate at Shrewsbury Town has seen Gary Rowett sacked as Stoke boss.
Rowett has been relieved of his duties after eight months in the role - and three days after the 1-1 draw in the third round at Montgomery Waters Meadow.
It means the Potters could have a new man at the helm for the replay, which has been provisionally scheduled for next Tuesday (8pm).
Rory Delap, Kevin Russell and Andy Quy are in charge of first-team affairs for now.
Stoke said in a statement: "Stoke City have terminated the contract of manager Gary Rowett.
"Members of his immediate coaching staff have also left the bet365 Stadium.
"The club would like to thank Gary and his staff for their efforts over the past eight months.
"A new managerial appointment will be made as swiftly as possible but in the meantime, Rory Delap, Kevin Russell and Andy Quy will take charge of first-team affairs."
