Dunfermline stated: 'The management duo made a great impact on arrival at the club, leading us to the League One title during a record-breaking season in 2022-23. However, this season has proven challenging and the club board felt the need to make a change as we head into January.'
James McPake previously led Dunfermline to a sixth-place finish upon their return to the second tier, but the team currently sits second bottom of the league.
The current board decided to sack McPake and Mackay while informing a prospective investor about their move, indicating ongoing discussions regarding club ownership.
Dunfermline's decision mirrors the situation of other local clubs, as mentioned: 'the Dunfermline decision means both Fife clubs in the Championship are seeking a new manager.'
