He got to the play off final in his one season in the championship. He’d also command the respect instantly of the dressing room

My mates a Reading fan - and can’t believe why he’s still there. Reckon he’s running miracles

He’d probably still get into our central midfield to be honest

2bf - you can be pissed off with the clubs decisions, but you’d still be a fan. Shmmeee can call King a c**t but I’d imagine he’ll still cheer Lampard on if he gets the job. At least he hasn’t said he wants us to lose like some have. That’s bizarre behaviour

He was caretaker manager after Duff, one of their commenters stated he saved their season As you’ve said - would they command the respect though

Lampard isn’t my first choice but 2bh he did a good job at Derby and he managed Chelsea through their transfer embargo. Brought through Mount and Reece James - I think Conor Gallagher come through him. Everton are a basket case and he kept them up there. reputation wise - he’d command the...

Was reading Swanseas forum and they’re really complementary about Alan Sheehan

I’d agree with this - one thing I believe Robins is great at and I’ve pointed this out before - he’s a siege manager. he’ll take average players and drag another 10% out of them. Godden was a journey man striker, McFadzean, Kelly, etc. seems to struggle with more mercurial players - See JCH and...

This is where I’m at, if this is the structure king wants - it’s one I support. But it’s one Robins didn’t fit into.

Yes. But Robins rates Delaney. Someone told me that was behind his promotion (not necessarily to replace AV - but definitely to first team) Robins wasn’t a king man. I have my suspicions that Robins would have gone at the end of last season if we hadn’t made the semi finals of the cup. New...

1) - The Checkatrade Trophy - feel like this was understated as to how important this was. This lifted us off the ground 2) - Middlesbrough away - convinced me we were returning to the Prem (not to be - but I really believed) 3) - beating Sunderland 1-0 to go top of league one. That had me...

Yeah - sounds like a managed exit, make the position untenable, the replacement will be a lot more free. Guarentee it. I will admit it’s the most important appointment we’ve got to make in years. Does feel like a cross roads moment

Not necessarily train but to manage. 3/5 of the coaches were here prior to King Delaney, Williams and Dempster. admittedly - Williams being the defensive coach is an odd one considering he’s goalkeeping coach. Carr is an individual skills and development coach. Boeteng has been at Villa and...

We were looking for an assistant manager not long ago, the new man will bring in an assistant. we need someone who’s tactically astute.

The role is changing to head coach. The job is to manage the coaches, the guy said “Robins isn’t a coach” that would suggest the coaches didn’t have direction. you’re correct - the deck has been loaded against him if it’s true. It’s been said on here Robins agreed with the Vivaesh removal, and...

There will be an assistant. If what you’ve said is true king decided a while back he wanted Robins gone. its a shame Robins couldn’t adapt. If he’s not a coach as you’ve then his role was untenable, given his game management isn’t the best

There won’t be one lined up - but they’ll have a shortlist that was prepared weeks ago

If that’s the case - it’s exactly as thought. robins has been managed out. I’d expect a new appointment in the mould they want to get an assistant manager, and is likely to get more things his way.

100% this lot have said NOPM but went to Wembley during the checkatrade trophy…. Them complained when the St Andrews season ticket holders got extra away points

Tell you the truth I think it’s because we’ve historically been poor at breaking down the 10 men As annoyed as I was - I didn’t see Robins getting sacked off the back of it
