"Stuart and Stephen for their efforts during their time"
"This has been a difficult decision taken after careful consideration. We believe there is plenty of quality in the squad and had hoped that results would turn around. Unfortunately change is now required to best serve the interests of Kilmarnock FC. With an important run of festive fixtures about to get under way, starting this weekend at home to Falkirk, we hope all supporters can stick with us as we aim to get back to winning ways."
Kilmarnock have dismissed manager Stuart Kettlewell following a 10-match winless run that included eight defeats, and assistant Stevie Frail has also left. Kris Doolan has been appointed interim manager. Kettlewell, 41, previously managed Motherwell and Ross County and had succeeded Derek McInnes in the close season. The team won six of its first 13 matches but then suffered six consecutive defeats followed by two more losses after two draws. Kilmarnock sit second bottom of the Scottish Premiership, three points above Livingston who have a game in hand. The club thanked the departing coaches and cited the need for change ahead of the festive fixtures starting with Falkirk.
