    He knows his way around the lower leagues not too disappointed if it is Alexander.

    Not gutted, not excited, but we are a league two team so we can't expect an exciting appointment, even nicking a L1 manager currently in a job wouldn't exactly be exciting.

    It is what it is. At this point in his career he has a similar success rate to Parky had when he rocked up. I just hope we have finally got this one right. Success this year would be at least the play off final, and sorting out our bloated playing squad.

    Graham Alexander always takes Chris Lucketti with him, as assistant manager.

    alexander was still in work the first time we invited applicants so the timeframe makes sense. Explains why we scrapped the second interviews too.

    has as good a CV as anyone we could have hoped to attract, including the Cowley bros

    Clearly you are fully knowledgeable in the professional recruitment process.

    Can you write a recruitment guide for a professional football manager for ( You must be aware of the Dummies guides?)

    Your remit

    You don’t have a manager to shoehorn in, eg Rooney
    You have to recruit on the basis of promotion no later than May 2025.

    Timescales at each stage
    Interview Process, Who will interview etc
    Due diligence
    Contractual and legal agreements

    Over to you.

    Ive not spoken to the player himself but know a lad who does. Betting has been suspended and Ian Dennis on BBC is saying it too, so I’d be very surprised if it wasn’t GA now.

    would be quite funny though if player is telling everyone a name just to send us on a wild goose chase!!

    He was pictured with several fans in the suite on Saturday wasn’t he. That did make me wonder, but then the word going around is that its GA and the players found out on Sunday

    Had a mate text me similar so think it’s him. I imagine he will have been down at training today getting all the pictures done etc?
    Then announced tomorrow/later this evening after training?

    Anyone get any good odds on GA? Hope to see some have a bit of a windfall.
