Dundee have parted company with manager John Brown in the wake of Saturday's 1-1 draw with Alloa at Dens Park.
The former Clyde boss replaced Barry Smith 12 months ago and the Dark Blues are currently second in the Championship, behind Falkirk only on goal difference.
A statement on the Dundee website read: "Dundee FC and manager John Brown have today announced they are to part company by mutual agreement. The club agreed with John's expressed view that, after recent results, this is the best way forward.
"The Board of Directors would like to put on record their thanks, not only for his valiant efforts in attempting to keep us in the Premier League last season when no-one gave us a chance, but also for his hard work and diligence in achieving the current points total which sees the club joint top of the league with 14 games to go.
"The club expects to move quickly to appoint a new manager to continue the good work by the management and players to date and to get us over the line as champions in May."
