Paul Hart Parts Company with Portsmouth

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 18:14:23 +0000

Portsmouth manager Paul Hart has left the club with immediate effect after being sacked, according to Sky Sports News. Hart took over as caretaker manager following Tony Adams' departure in February 2009, guiding the club to Premier League safety, and was appointed permanently in July 2009 on a two-year deal. Under Hart's stewardship, the club won just nine of 30 games and in the 2009-10 season suffered the worst start by a Premier League club, losing their first seven games in difficult circumstances.

It's worth noting that seven of Tottenham Hotspur's nine goals against Wigan on Sunday came from players employed by Pompey last year, with Hart losing a number of players due to the financial problems that saw the club narrowly avoid ...
