ankara - stung by the harsh criticism coming from this blog after the rubbish display that was the 0-2 loss to manisa on sunday, fuat capa on monday evening resigned as genclerbirligi coach rather than actually face the sack.
according to an official statement released by genclerbirligi late monday night, capa handed in a signed resignation form which was duly accepted.
capa was not immediately available for comment but appeared to have been forced out despite sounding defiant on sunday night when he told members of the most honourable profession of scribes that he would not resign and that he would fight on.
however, sources close to the club speaking to "the round ball in ankara" via the anatolian news agency said it was a case of either capa resigning or being sacked.
capa was in charge at genclerbirligi for five league games in which he recorded just one win, a draw and three losses. capa's assistant coaches mustafa kaplan and ozcan bizati also fell on their swords.

so capa is gone. who the hell do we turn to now.
scary though. this blog only had to suggest that we get an interview and bang... capa is history.
