Darrell Clarke is set to be sacked by Bristol Rovers, talkSPORT understands.

The decision was understood to have been made hours after a 3-0 defeat to Swindon Town on Saturday.

Joe Snowdon, Ollie Clarke and Aaron Drinan all struck in the first half to condemn Rovers to a tenth-straight loss.

Their run of ten defeats on the bounce marked the club's most in history, with a 4-0 loss on Barnet last Tuesday - their ninth in a row - breaking the record.
