The poor form has seen them slump to 17th in the table after initially being hopeful of promotion.

They sat third in the table in early December but are now 13 points off the relegation zone.

In a short statement, the club confirmed the sacking, saying: “Milton Keynes Dons have parted company with head coach Scott Lindsey.

“Everyone at MK Dons would like to sincerely thank Scott for his efforts during his time in Milton Keynes and wish him every success in the future.

“The club will be making no further comment at this time and will update supporters in due course.”

Lindsey left Crawley Town to become MK Dons boss in September – just months after guiding the club to promotion to League One.

They went up via the play-offs, beating The Dons 8-1 on aggregate in the semi-final.

Former Rotherham and Wigan boss Leam Richardson has been tipped to take over at Stadium MK.
