Scott Brown Leaves Ayr United by Mutual Consent After Prolonged Slump

The exit signals a reset for a side sliding toward the foot of Scotland's second tier.

Overview

  • Ayr United said in a club statement that manager Scott Brown and assistant Steven Whittaker have departed by mutual consent.
  • A run of only one league win since December has left the club near the bottom of the Scottish Championship.
  • A loss to Raith Rovers was reported as the final straw after Brown said his team lacked fight.
  • Training has been assigned to Jamie Murphy, Tommy Tait and Dave Timmins, with interim plans to be announced.
  • Brown, appointed in January 2024, first kept Ayr up and then reached the play-offs last season before this campaign’s drop-off.
