The news comes at the beginning of the international break, allowing Chairman Dejphon Chansiri a little time to have a new man in in time for their next match against Preston a week on Saturday. But who will be the next boss? Here’s a look at some of the possible contenders, with a couple of left field names thrown in for good measure.
9. Darren Moore
Did well as interim at West Brom and is doing very well now up the road in Doncaster. Would be a bit of a left field choice but he's a very good man-manager and you'd back him to get the best out of this bunch Photo: James Chance
10. Carlos Carvalhal
Currently managing Braga in his native Portugal and doing a fine job too. You wouldn't bet against him being back at Hillsborough at some stage, but with his side in the middle of a Europa League campaign it's not likely to be this time around. Still loves the Owls Photo: GEOFF CADDICK
