Former England women's coach Mark Sampson has been placed in caretaker charge of Stevenage.
Borough, without a win so far this season, sacked boss Dino Maamria on Monday morning and have asked Sampson to fill the void.
The 36-year-old (below, far left) had been working as a coach at the League Two club since July - his first role in football since being given the boot by the FA in September 2017.
"Following a strong run of results at the end of the 2018/19 season, where Stevenage finished the season in 10th place with six wins from the final seven games, missing the play-offs by one point, the club have not recorded a win so far this season and currently sit 23rd place in League Two," a statement read.
"Mark Sampson will assume control of the team in a caretaker role, assisted by newly appointed U18 manager Alex Revell, until further notice."
Sampson was sacked by the Football Association following the emergence of "inappropriate and unacceptable behaviour" in his previous role as manager at Bristol Academy.
Sampson was dismissed one day after England beat Russia 6-0 following a previous safeguarding investigation into his time at Bristol, where he had a six-month relationship with a player aged over 18.
He had also been the focus of bullying and racism claims, first made by Eni Aluko and then Drew Spence.
The FA said the allegations were investigated and Sampson was cleared of any wrongdoing.
