TBH nothing surprises me in football or with the skyblues anymore, he's got an offer from a team a division above us ( bigger or not it doesnt matter ) ,he's going to earn more cash, work with better players and a better chance of reaching the PL where the big £££'s are. Football isnt a sport anymore, its a business, players , managers, the board etc etc etc couldnt give a toss about what goes on the pitch, its a job which pays well, they have no loyalty to any club and contracts are practically worthless these days anyway, many of the reasons why im falling out of love with the game....

Doubt our board would have the common sense or the balls to even try and challenge that.

Coventry City Football Club can confirm that it has reluctantly allowed manager Mark Robins to speak to Championship club Huddersfield Town.

It's a mercenary business, everyone motivated by money, surprised a little by Robins behaviour, no surprised by SISU who pull the strings of the CCFC Board, as they need every penny of cash to fund each day of trading. This news when confirmed, could be the final defining moment, what comes next?

Coventry City allow manager Robins to speak to Huddersfield Town '"with great reluctance"
Coventry City have “with great reluctance” allowed Huddersfield to speak to manager Mark Robins.
The 43-year-old, who is five months into a three-year contract, informed CCFC that he wished to explore the possibility of joining the Championship club despite efforts to keep him.
Sky Blues Chief Executive Tim Fisher said: “We have had more than one club interested in Mark in the last few weeks and we have made every effort to ensure he stays with us.
“We talked to him at length today and he met the owner. Once we had done everything we could and it was obvious that he was still interested in talking to Huddersfield, we had no choice other than to let him do so.
“We are just hoping that when he weighs up his options and opportunities, he will see the great progress to date and the support he has from fans and management alike, coupled with the potential in Coventry, and decide to stay.”

He knew exactly what he was getting when he signed , I dont blame sisu in any way for this. No way can he carry on even if he doesn't take over at uddersfield. The man will now be in the same bracket as bellamy , absolutely feckin hated.

Martinez spoke with Villa, isn't over till it's over.
He might just want to see what it's like up there .
Unlikely he'll want to stay after his shenanigans now.

He'll be loved here as much as Torres is in Liverpool! :claping hands:

True! But I bet he wasnt called a c**t and death wished upon him by his own clubs supporters

Probably was.
I'd also bet Martinez didn't say he bled 'blue and white' and said the club is in his heart etc.

I'd welcome him back
You can't expect a manager to stay with a little league 1 club when a championship club steps in for them. Donny let go of Dean Saunders to Wolves not long ago, that's football. If Donny at the top end of the league can't hold onto their manager, you have to realise a mid table club like Coventry have no chance of keeping theirs.

But hopefully we will attract someone better than a dwarf who hadn't been in management for 8 years.

Wolves are a much bigger club than Huddersfield. Dean Saunders was looking at a club that aims to be in the premiership.
Mark Robins is going to a club that will think itself lucky to avoid relegation to league 1.

Wolves have got big potential, Huddersfield don't really.
