Dirk Kuyt sacked by Dutch club ADO Den Haag

Former Liverpool striker Dirk Kuyt has been sacked by ADO Den Haag following a poor start to the season.

The ex-Holland international, 42, was only appointed as the Dutch second division club's coach back in the summer but leaves after only 176 days with the team 17th of 20 in the table.

Kuyt oversaw just four wins and was confronted by frustrated supporters at the training ground in September after the club's worst start to a season ever.
