The 75-year-old replaced Barry Robson on an interim basis but has now left his role.
The veteran boss announced the bombshell after the Dons won 3-1 against Kilmarnock at Pittodrie to secure a last four place at Hampden. Warnock, 75, was brought in on an interim basis but was under huge pressure after winning just once - against lowly Bonnyrigg Rose in the Scottish Cup - before the victory over the Rugby Park side in the quarter finals.
Dons chairman Dave Cormack said on the club website: “The club would like to thank both Neil and Ronnie Jepson for their efforts. With the search for a new manager at an advance staged, Peter Leven will assume control of all first team matters until the process is concluded.” Warnock said: “I was honoured to lead Aberdeen for a short period to help Dave and the Board get themselves into a position where they could get closer to making a permanent appointment. It goes without saying that I had hoped I could’ve collected a few more league wins along the way, but I am also delighted to have helped the club into the Scottish Cup semi final. I hope they can now go on and lift the trophy.
“Ronnie and I can’t thank the fans enough for their support while we’ve been here and we wish the club and the supporters all the very best for the remainder of the season and for the future.”
