#EFC It can confirm that Frank Lampard has left his post as first team manager of the men’s team today.

Lampard’s side lost 2-1 to the 20th-placed team Southampton Last weekend and their latest defeat prompted the board to act, with Everton only bottom of the table on goal difference.
The Merseyside club has recorded just three wins in 20 years Premier League Matches this season, the last to face Crystal Palace On 22 October. No team has yet won fewer games in the division.
Ahead of the Southampton game, Everton owner Farhad Moshiri had given Lampard his support but, after West Ham’s loss, claimed that sacking him “wasn’t his decision”.
But defeat by West Ham, fellow strugglers this season, was a huge loss for Lampard.
