Steve Tandy's replacement at Ospreys announced
By Nathaniel Cope
Ospreys confirmed on Friday that forwards coach, Allen Clarke, will take temporary control of the team following Steve Tandy’s departure earlier this week.
Andrew Millward, Managing Director, Ospreys Rugby, said:
"Allen has agreed to take up the reins as interim Head Coach while the search for a permanent replacement is ongoing.
"He is vastly experienced, at both club/regional level and the international game, and will provide leadership as the team pursues its goals for the remainder of the season. I have no doubt that he will have the full support of everybody at the Ospreys."
Tandy was sacked by the Ospreys after they exited the Champions Cup following a 24-7 defeat at Clermont Auvergne. It was the eighth year in a row that the Welsh side had failed to make it to the knockout stage.
The Ospreys have struggled in the Pro 14 this season too, with just four wins from 13 matches, and are second-from-bottom in Conference A.
Tandy won the Pro 12 in 2011/12, his first season in charge, but failed to deliver silverware after that.

Just came back from the game and the atmosphere was amazing. Players stayed afterwards for more than a hour to sign stuff and take photos with fans. Great day out.
