    Gary Jones till the summer, then re-assess. That'd be my vote.

    Might be just the kick up the arse that useless lot require to get a few wins together.
    I really don't know who is or was worse, the players or the manager.
    Talk about a club in turmoil.

    When Hopkin said he would make changes for the pompey game i didn’t this would be one of them lol. Talk about deserting a sinking ship.

    This club is in utter freefall.

    Quick question for those currently on here.

    would you,

    A) Get a new manager now to try keep us up?

    or

    B) Give it Drury and get a new manager in the summer and rebuild?

    Gary Bowyer would be a good appointment actually, would back him to keep us up. Gary Jones could well just go the same way as Weatherall.... don't think anyone wants that.

    Look, I said it that Hopkin had lost the dressing room and he is no fool. He knew it.

    Now, every player has a chance to produce. It's really is all down to the players now.

    He tried earlier and couldn't get a tune out of this team.
    Hopkin walked rather than see out the final year of his contract in L2 says all you need to know.

    The players, well they are just seeing out time before the relegation clause kicks in and the loanees can escape home.
    There is no fight in this dog, for any incoming manager/coach.
    Drury is stepping up, dear Lord.
    Maybe Rhodes will ring up Wetherall.

    Evans needs a massive budget and we’re £2m down, this seasons a write off, plan for L2.

    Agree.

    Maybe that's what we need now.

    He will give all the players a chance though. We've to start again with the players.

    Best news ever!
    Despite the good or bad players he inherited or brought to the club...The upshot is that he was clueless with what to do with them and how to play to each players potential.
    Got to be one of the worst managers ever at City.
    Feeling confident now for the first time in ages about our survival in L1
    We need the fans behind the team more than ever now, as its also down to us to play our part
    Come on City! We can smash this!

    This just looks like the Colin Todd time repeating itself. Rhodes must be having deja vu

    Many knew that Rachic had up our club in a serious way with him running it the way he did, but when someone like @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler and @EricMcManus@EricMcManus say this situation could take many years to put right it says how far weve dropped as a club.

    I’d take Evans all day long. Don’t care about the past right now, the future is what looks more concerning.
