Seasons a write off. Alexander has clocked out and the team needs another rebuild.
Should we just be dropping GA now and spend the rest of the season getting someone in who can have the summer to actually work?
Obvs we won't, we'll let GA have the window and sack him in October. But wouldn't it be nice if we could plan ahead for once

GA going, wether jumped or pushed, would be huge sign to anyone out there, not just City fans - fans in general, the media, the wider public, football circles, business circles... that we are a totally lost cause. No idea what we're doing or how to act as a professional footballer club.
Some said it was last chance saloon for Sparks. Like McCall coming back for a third time and failing again., it effectively killed his manager career in this country as his rep and name became mud. Would it though?
If he survived - and I think that just becuase he'd never land a CEO role anywhere else - season tickets would nosedive completely and I do genuinely think someone, anyone would be trying to make contact with Rupp like Dewhurst did with about Rahic.
I said earlier it would be letting the passenger fly the plane, and Sparks would have to dragged off the controls.
As for GA... I've no idea. We can't pay off another manager, after less than 6 months, surely? If he is losing the dressing room already then that may play some part, reckon we'll all try to hang on until the end of the season, get shut of the OOC players and give him a window to rebuild a squad for a tenner.
Roll the dice as usual, just stay up and don't go bust.

But wouldn't it be nice if we could plan ahead for once Getting rid of GA would make little difference. We need rid of those above him. It’s also worth noting how long it took us to appoint GA in the first place and how we know that other candidates turned us down. I honestly think that we’d struggle to attract any decent candidates at all this time, certainly anyone better than GA as sad as that is.

Alexander needs the boot and I'm not sure it makes a difference which order we fuck the three cunts off so long as they're all gone.

If Graham Alexander goes, mastermind Sparks picks his replacement and we go round again so there is little point in his sacking whilst Sparks is still here.

We should never have appointed Alexander but he’s not the problem and sacking him wouldn’t make any difference at all. If I were Alexander I’d jump ship now whilst he can still play the ‘fuck me, what a car crash of a club’ card, a bit like Grayson did. But I’m not sure anyone else would be interested in Alexander if he did, as were the club where managers go to die.
The problem is the owner, short and simple. And I don’t see anything changing. Rupp is rich enough that he doesn’t *have* to sell, though it’ll be interesting what happens if/when season ticket sales fall off a cliff.

Interesting to see that Cowley is failing badly at Col U. I reckon they will go down with Sutton. It wouldn't have made the slightest bit of difference if he'd taken the job here, we'd still be where we are now.

You know they have no money to spend are 41 million in debt to their owner and are struggling to pay wages? Not sure anyone can turn that ship around. If not this season then next season they will go.
