Sheffield United can confirm that manager Danny Wilson has left the club this evening.



First team coach Chris Morgan will take temporary charge of the Blades for the remainder of the 2012-13 campaign, starting with Saturday's home encounter with Swindon Town.



Assistant manager Frank Barlow has also left the club.



Blades owner Kevin McCabe commented: "We must thank Danny and Frank for all their endeavours and hard work over the past two seasons.



"We now have a mini season for this club to achieve success and we will all back Chris in this mission."



Sheffield United has purposefully waited for conclusions to talks on Wednesday evening before making this announcement. More to follow on Thursday.
