Yeah because quite frankly that same man is an employee. the structure is one that’s used throughout modern football. It’s one that is relatively successful in pushing teams to that elite level. again - as I’ve said multiple times before, she’s got nothing to do with whether the players can...

It’s not though is it, it’s a proven success hence why most sides at our level and the one above run it the same way. I don’t want Robins to go, I’m frustrated like everyone is. But he needs to jump on board and adapt to the set up and concentrate on motivating this side. I think he’s got these...

The previous backroom was only going to take us so far though. Robins has to adapt to be fair - he’s shown he can when he’s previously had injuries and changed formation every season. the changes benefit the manager by taking things off his plate and allowing him to set his team up. It’s not...

Becuase the role of a performance director isn’t a short term role. It looks over the long term health of the club and looks at the strategy going forward. very much like the director of football. I’ve mentioned this before - the modern way of football is minimising the effect of a manager...

I’d argue their performance would be a lot better if they had a consistent set up, formation and general motivation. I ask again - who is in control of that? Who picks the team, motivates and gives the instructions. which of Delaney, Boateng and Roberts controls that

Let’s phrase it a new way - what decisions could George Boateng, Mark Delaney and Claire Roberts do to get us winning? what are they currently doing to make this currently a shit show

Yeah and that’s a Robins issue

This is a concern I have - that being said, Robbie Keane is a punt worth taking given he’d have to sack Robins who ultimately a legend

Player performance in terms of fitness, hence “ applying sports science to everything from injury prevention to strength and conditioning to nutrition” her other role is the psychological profile of signings. The director of football is Dean Austin, but he’s likely to be more involved with...

But that’s the same. She’s designing the profile of the players we’re signing. short term she’s about the long term development of the players. And even then from her words it’s the fitness aspect and sports science aspect it still doesn’t show she’s responsible for the day to day performances...

Basically you’re refusing to acknowledge that Robins is ballsing up. he’s directly quoted as being involved in the interview and selection process, he’s talked about putting in place a structure used by the elite sides. Ultimately he’s got the tools to succeed and unlike last year he hasn’t...

Right I’ve mentioned this in multiple threads - people’s understanding of her role is totally wrong she’s there to analyse the long term strategy of the playing staff. She’s there to put in place the pieces of the puzzle that will make the club successful in developing long term she isn’t...

2bf that might have something to do with Man City being a runaway freight train

Are the higher ups picking the team?

2bf these feels and spirit are for the fans. the main decision maker King owes Robins nothing

John Eustace. Blackburn are doing well but are a bit of a mess. We could tempt Him likely to be a coach we’ve never heard of though.

Which to be fair he at least made a fist of from the car crash he inherited

Literally everyone is saying robins didn’t want this structure and making out he’s not been part of it. He 100% would have been He’s not the main reason of course. But he’s the guy the short term buck stops with. He gets the praise when we do well, he gets the kick when we don’t. I think he’s...

The structure is one that is successful throughout football, more individual coaches tailoring each player to each weakness. I get we all want to make out Robins as a clueless bystander in all this, who’s had 45m and a structure that is used by most forward thinking teams foisted onto him...

He’s been saying for years about what he has to do and what he wants and the supports he needs. It’s all there His job is to manage the team, we know given the fact this side finished 9th and got to the FA Cup semi the players have talent. It’s Robins job to get them playing as a unit - as he...
