    Also 3 year deals for the likes of Oduor and Smith. Total stupidity.

    I vote we change manager every week.

    What a moronic thread.

    Who knows at this stage whether there is any substance or not to this.

    It comes as a bit of a surprise to me that the club is even considering getting rid of Alexander. I've thought for some time now that if anything, it would be Alexander choosing to leave the basket case of a club for his own self respect!

    Some suggestions "get Bruno in" all well and good until he doesn't win 10 on the bounce then the unrest starts again rinse and repeat. Sooner or later we have to give a manager a bit of time.

    I wouldn't be surprised that GA will be shown the door if and when we lose tonight.
    I'm not one for hiring and firing managers every time we have a bad run.
    But it does seem like GA is unable to stop this slump. Rather than play our way out of it he seems to regress further and further into playing clogger football at the expense of the players who can play football. It smacks of desperation and a lack of ideas.

    Of course not. We'll stick Macky back in charge for a few games. Not communicate during this period. Wait for someone to get sacked and then appoint them as 'the right man'. He'll then dismantle the team over the summer and recruit based on his philosophy of how to play.
    Sack him in November/December/January and then repeat the whole process.
    I know WAGMI have a very dubious source of funding but take a look at their plans and what they've implemented so far at Crawley. IF they can keep riding the bit coin wave, they may have a long-term and successful club that isn't solely predicated on season ticket sales.

    You think you will get that long lol. I would ask for a 3 year contract - surely not out of the question!

    The job's yours if you promise to take Smallwood off free kick duties.
    A three year deal if you bin him off completely!

    Take the teeth out and there is just about enough room for 52 seats

    In the offices though, Rahic upset plenty didn’t he. Even drove Mason - who loved the club - out.
