FORMER Crystal Palace player and manager Peter Taylor has been sacked by League One Gillingham.
The Kent club today announced on the club website that Taylor, 61, had been "relieved of his duties with immediate effect".
Taylor, who was in his second spell at the club, had overseen a poor run which has left Gillingham perilously close to the relegation zone.
The former England Under 21 boss managed Palace between 2006 and 2007.
