That's one of the things that infuriates me most about this godawful wingback system instead of fullbacks and wingers.

How often did we used to see moves started with Graham Alexander receiving a short roll out from the keeper and advance with the ball knowing there were options of a pacy winger ahead, a ball inside to a quality holding midfielder or a long diagonal to a decent target man...

I’d probably have to take issue with the “pacy winger ahead” bit but I fully agree with the sentiment of your post!

Will he even last the season? Genuinely.

Sadly, another couple of defeats like these and it starts to look very very difficult for him.

“Graham and Chris have worked tirelessly but have failed to have the impact on the team we were hoping for. Ryan Lowe will be returning to the club to lead the team on an interim basis”.

Fast forward to summer 2028. “We are convinced that Ryan is the right man to lead to club forward back to what we see as our rightful home in League 1”.
 
He must go/ try a back 4, a few of the bigger sides are playing a 4 -5-1 system. More bodies in midfield, more attacking players. It would mean we don’t have to play all of the 3 duds at the back, more players in there actual position. I don’t see how it could be any worse.

Not sure where to post this, but after seeing the Presser on club website I’m now fully convinced that we have the right manager in place.

I'll wait until we stop shipping 4 goals a game before being convinced that's the case.

Lowe was a breath of fresh air when he first came in bursting with positivity. Then PH and SM were talked about in the same way after they replaced the bluster with a more grounded style, which got old quick because PH didn't enjoy doing it.

Now GA is the right man for the job because he seems to enjoy having a sit down and a chin wag whilst not really saying all that much at all.

People put way to much emphasis on these things. It means nothing if we continue to lose every match.

Are we tracking his win percentage yet?

No it’s still Hecky’s mess for me.

Regardless, Alexander still has to deliver more than a couple of fan pleasing press conferences though to be considered the right man for the job.

Time will tell. So far, we've declined, which is impressive considering where we were. Caveat is that the fixtures have been tougher than the opening ones.

The next dozen or so don't look any less tough either. 🙁
