Blackburn manager Henning Berg fired

altBlackburn manager, Norwegian Henning Berg has been fired after only 57 days on the job, due to poor results, according to the club's owners.

Berg only achieved one victory in ten games, in his time as manager of the Premier League club.

Andy Bays of BBC Radio Lancashire says: "It's difficult to judge a manager who never had the opportunity to buy anyone in the transfer window as he inherited Steve Kean's squad, but unfortunately in today's results-based industry one win in 10 games is not good enough and something had to give".
