Waterford have sacked Jon Daly, meaning the Premier Division’s bottom club are seeking their fourth manager in the space of 13 months.

The Blues are winless this term, taking five draws from their 13 matches, but the expectation was Daly would remain in charge for Monday’s visit of Dundalk following an encouraging performance in Friday’s 1-0 defeat at leaders Shamrock Rovers.
