Hibernian have sacked manager Lee Johnson after Saturday's 3-2 home defeat to Livingston left the club bottom of the Scottish Premiership.
Hibs have lost all three league games this season, while they also suffered a humbling 5-0 home defeat to Aston Villa in the UEFA Europa Conference League.
During the defeat to Livingston at Easter Road on Saturday, some fans called for Johnson to be sacked.
The 42-year-old departs the club after just over 15 months in charge following his appointment in May 2022.
Hibs confirmed that coaches Jamie McAllister and Adam Owen had also left with immediate effect.
Hibernian chief executive Ben Kensell said: "The club has taken the tough decision to relieve Lee Johnson of his duties following a disappointing start to the domestic campaign.
"We wish Lee and his coaching staff all the best for the future and thank them for their efforts."
