Taylor,
who also managed Crystal Palace, Leicester City, Brighton & Hove Albion,
Gillingham, Wycombe Wanderers, Hull City and England under-21s amongst others,
took charge of the Daggers in June 2018 but leaves with them in 18th
spot, just two points above the drop zone.
A
statement from the club reads: “It is with disappointment that the Board of
Dagenham & Redbridge announce that Peter Taylor has left the club with
immediate effect.
“The
club would firstly like to place on record its sincere thanks to Peter, who
stepped in as manager in June 2018 when the club was under extreme pressure,
and with his extensive expertise was able to assemble and guide the team.
“With
that said, a change is required based on recent results in order to both enable
sufficient time for the Board to select a replacement, and for the new manager
to start and achieve the aspirations set forth by our investment group.
“Work
has commenced on the search process for a new manager, but for the immediate
future, day to day team affairs will be handled by Terry Harris and Jody Brown”. |
