Former defender dismissed after eight game winless run.
After only 16 games in charge of League Two team MK Dons, former Luton midfielder Graham Alexander was fired.
The 52-year-old was only hired by Stadium MK in the summer, but he got off to a good start, earning Manager of the Month honors after pulling up four straight victories to take first place in the standings.
But after they drew 2-2 with Barrow at home on Saturday, despite leading 2-0 in stoppage time, the ex-Hatter’s fans started to turn on them after an eight-match losing streak and four defeats.
“We had opportunities to see that game out and we’re not making good decisions, and then it’s a blind panic at 2-1.
“I can’t defend losing the three points, it’s not a bunch of kids who hadn’t played football before.
“Surely we understand we have to do this for this five minutes, or that for this five minutes, whatever you’ve been taught over the years?”
A statement on the Dons website said: “Milton Keynes Dons Football Club has parted company with Head Coach Graham Alexander.
“Assistant Head Coach Chris Lucketti will also depart Stadium MK.
“The Club would like to thank Graham and Chris for their dedication and tireless efforts during their time at Stadium MK.
“They depart with the best wishes of everyone at MK Dons.”
