    I don't trust a single person at this club to undertake any sort of rebuild effectively.

    We're in serious trouble. Very real chance of us going down next season.

    GA hasn't shown enough at all to be trusted with a rebuild. But as per usual at City, he got a 3 year deal..... it's a bantam thing.

    Problem is, I can't see how he's setting up the team to score goals.

    Are we a team that gets the ball wide for crosses into the box? No.

    Do we pass the ball through the thirds to get someone to run onto goal? No.

    Are we playing the ball over the top for players to run onto? No.

    What is his plan to create chances? I genuinely have no idea

    Wholesale changes, bring Kelly, Bobby, Chappy , Wilson and Wandsworth on.

    Give em a chance, nothing to lose. Long lumps in this wind are bloody useless.

    I half think he wants to get sacked. Team can't play the 343/541 tactic but he sticks with it. Scraps are all we ever get. Wouldn't at all be surprised if he's already lost the dressing room.

    I didn't say it would, I said on 50 you should be safe but 63 is what you need at the moment to guarantee you are safe and it is never a good situation where you are relying on others to drop points rather than make yourself safe. And the earlier you are mathematically safe the sooner the club can start to make firm plans for next season which is always useful (it might be part of the reason you have had issues this year not knowing until late if you were building a league 1 or 2 team)

    Players have given up that’s for sure GA comments other week won’t have helped.

    If Sparkes has any integrity he should fire GA tonight and hand in his notice and allow someone more experienced with footballing knowledge to come in to oversee recruitment

    The only tactic I see is that we are simply relying on Harrogate to make a defensive mistake. The constant hoofing and hoping to win the second ball is poor management

    63?.... are you looking at the right league? The most Sutton can finish on is 51. The most FGR can finish on is 57?

    Thing is… this is Hughes team, he knew how to play them, injuries cost him his job.. Alexander has absolutely no idea… Sparks is a dick
