Bournemouth have sacked manager Lee Bradbury after just over a year in charge of the club.

The League One side, who are currently 13th in the table, were consigned to a sixth defeat in their last eight matches with a 1-0 loss at Oldham Athletic on Saturday.

"Youth-team manager Paul Groves and head of youth Shaun Brooks will take charge of the first team until the end of the season, starting with Tuesday night's fixture at Stevenage," read a club statement.

"The club will make no further comment at this stage."

Bradbury was appointed in January 2011 after a five-year playing spell with the coastal side.
