After just four months in charge of the club, Hibs have sacked their manager.
The departure of the 39-year-old comes after they failed to secure a top-six finish in the Scottish Premiership and exited the Scottish Cup to Edinburgh rivals Hearts.
Ronald J Gordon said in a statement that the club hoped to take the club forward with the appointment of a young, highly regarded coach, but that has not been the case.
We wish all the best for the coaching staff and thank them for their hard work.
In his first two matches in charge, the former Celtic and Scotland player won against Aberdeen and Dundee United.

Hibs have only won one game in the Scottish top flight in the last four years, and a league defeat against Hearts the week before the semi-final consigned them to a bottom six finish.
At times, the club has been without a full team of players due to illness, injury, and suspension, and the club sold Martin Boyle late in the transfer window.

At Saturday's meeting, he claimed that he knew what was needed for his side to compete with Hearts next season.
I have known for a while that we need to be better in certain areas to be able to fight for top six, top four, Europe. After his 10 men suffered a 2-1 defeat, he said that he had known that from the beginning.
I have worked hard with the players we have, young players, but we all have to make sure that we are a lot stronger in certain areas, so that when we have performances like this, we take advantage.
The money we have, we have to spend it wisely this summer, and we have to be a lot different at the start of next season.
Gary Caldwell, Valerio Zuddas, and Brian Doogan left with immediate effect and will not be given the chance to implement his plans.
David Gray will take charge of the team for the rest of the season with the help of Eddie May and Jon Busch.
