Dundee have announced Jim McIntyre has left the club following relegation to the Championship.
A brief statement on the Dens side’s website revealed McIntyre and assistant Jimmy Boyle have gone.
McIntyre led Dundee to their first win in 11 games on Saturday with victory over Livingston.
But that result wasn’t enough for the board who have wielded the axe ahead of next season.
The statement read: "Dundee Football Club can confirm that Jim McIntyre and Jimmy Boyle have left the club with immediate effect.
"Jim came to the club in October last year and shortly after Jimmy was appointed as his assistant manager.
"The management team oversaw 31 matches in charge, with 3 victories, 7 draws and 20 defeats.
"Relegation from the Ladbrokes Premiership was confirmed last weekend with a loss to Hamilton Accies at the Kilmac Stadium at Dens Park.
"We would like thank Jim and Jimmy for their efforts while in charge and wish them all the best for the future."
McIntyre said on Saturday he expected to be in charge next season and was looking forwarded to leading Dees back to the Premiership.
