Aberdeen have parted company with manager Barry Robson and assistant boss Steve Agnew.
The Dons sit in eighth place in the cinch Premiership table with 24 points from 21 matches and were runners-up in the Viaplay Cup final, losing 1-0 to Rangers.
Robson was named interim boss in February 2023 following Jim Goodwin's exit and steered the Dons to third place in the league and a spot in the 23/24 UEFA Europa Conference League group stage.
“Although it has been a difficult call, the Board felt the change was necessary and in the best interests of Aberdeen FC,” chairman Dave Cormack said in a statement on the club's website.
“Barry earned the right to be Aberdeen manager and knew the high level of expectation we had when he took the role. We gave Barry as much time and support as we possibly could in the hope, and expectation, he could return us to the league form we witnessed in the spring of last year.
“There is a talented squad of players at the Club which makes our current league position unacceptable.
“With 17 games left in the league and still in the Scottish Cup, this change is necessary to help us refocus on our ambitions for the rest of the season.
“It’s important we thank Barry for his significant contribution to Aberdeen as a player, a coach and manager. He’s a good man who worked extremely hard in everything he did for us, and it goes without saying that we wish him, and Steve, our very best."

First Team Coach Peter Leven has been asked to take charge of training on an interim basis.
