Sean Dyche was dismissed as manager of the team with eight games left in the season.
The Clarets have lost five of their last six top-flight games and are currently 18th and four points from safety.
Dyche took over at Turf Moor in October 2012 and was the longest serving manager in the league.
It was an incredibly difficult decision to part company with Dyche, but Alan said they felt a change was needed.
The last game that Dyche was in charge of was a 2-0 loss to the bottom of the league.
Steve Stone and Billy Mercer are goalkeeping coach and assistant manager, respectively.
The club would like to thank Sean and his staff for their achievements over the last decade.
Sean has been a credit both on and off the pitch, respected by players, staff, supporters, and the wider football community.
This was an incredibly difficult decision, but we feel a change is needed to give the squad the best chance of retaining its status, as results this season have been disappointing.
Under-23s coach Mike Jackson, assisted by academy director Paul Jenkins, Under-23s goalkeeping coach Connor King and club captain Ben Mee, have been asked to take charge of the team for Sunday's game with West Ham United.
The process of replacing Sean has begun and further announcements will be made to supporters.
More to come.
