Non-league Chichester City have shocked football by
sacking their manager by phone during a match.
Mark Poulton was standing by the dug-out as City led Redhill 2-1
in a Sussex Charity Cup game when his mobile rang.
He said: "During the second half I had a call from Gary Walker,
one of the directors, who said he was sorry to interrupt me and
then told me I'd been sacked.
"I couldn't believe it. The club are a complete mess and a
shambles - I'm better off out of it."
