Kilmarnock have sacked Angelo Alessio after just six months in charge of the club.
The Italian replaced Steve Clarke in the summer and has won just eight of his 22 games in charge.
That included the embarrassing Europa League exit to Connah's Quay Nomads.
It had appeared that he had turned his fortunes around but the club haven't managed to win any of their last four games in the Premiership.
Defeat at Ross County on Saturday was his final game in charge and he's been replaced by Alex Dyer as interim boss.
A Kilmarnock statement said: "The Kilmarnock Football Club Limited can today announce that Angelo Alessio has been relieved of his position as manager.
"Everyone at the club would like to thank Angelo for his efforts during his time with Kilmarnock and we wish him every success for the future.
"Alex Dyer will take charge of first-team duties on an interim basis.
"We will provide a further update for supporters in due course."
