    Even though they're still in the play Off places. Graham Alexander was one of the names put forward by some when Hecky left to be his replacement.

    Scunthorpe United FC can confirm that Manager Graham Alexander and Assistant Manager Neil McDonald have this evening both been relieved of their duties.

    The Club would wish to place on record their appreciation of Graham’s efforts during his two years at Glanford Park.

    They might well be back in the Championship at the end of May.

    Yep, one of many we've been linked with.

    Some turned us down and have since been sacked. Butcher, Cooper and Rosler were all doing well at the time, but have since moved on.

    I think Cooper is at Forest Green

    Surprised at this - thought he seemed a sensible bloke and sound professional.
    Interesting to see how they go now.

    thanks,

    1 win in something like 8 and nearly two dozen points off automatic despite being one of the favourites for promotion.

    If they dropped from the play offs keeping hold of him, it would be harder to get back in. I can see why the board started to panic and decided on a change whilst they are still top six. Maybe our Cameron might get more game time now too.
