Last 3 from last season were nothing games, I remember I was surprised Ipswich didn't beat us more easily considering they needed the points so badly and we didn't. Ironically the last 4 games under Robins was our best period.

Inaccurate, we beat Leeds at home. Can't remember others, but that one at least is wrong.

Exactly, based on what he's saying, if he's telling the complete truth without misleading, he rates Robins, but because we couldn't find an assistant manager we had no choice but to sack a loyal, proven successful manager of 7 years (people are taking for granted how fucking rare that is), to...

Yeah, which is entirely reasonable to assume after those 2 performances. I was genuinely concerned for him before those results, but was then convinced we'd turned the corner and he'd done it again. Granted Derby was potentially a blip, but as he said in his post match, it takes a while to get...

There's some similarities, especially attitude, but I don't think he's like for like with Vik. I think he has more similarities in attributes (attitude as well) with Vardy. If he goes on to be half as good as either though, then we're laughing.

Well if there's any truth in the rumours that Robins had an assistant lined up around the October international break and then the plug was pulled he would have had an idea that the writing was on the wall. Would also explain his out of character behaviour after the Preston game around that...

Does anyone have more context on why Robbie Keane would be such a bad choice? He's far from my first choice, but based on the below I'd have him streets ahead of Lampard. At first glance it looks like he did a great job at Maccabi Tel Aviv, winning them the league for the first time in 4...

The things I would do now to have a manager who's proven that he's 'turned it around before'. 😥

I guess the only question now is who will the manager when Lampard is sacked? Maybe Rooney will be available by then 🤔

Who are? What standard? I mean, I've seen the list of bookies favourites 😳 Glad you were satisfied with the way he answered that question then.

Just listened to it all. He was straight up about the 'revelation' about why Adi left, and that the new coaching set up is all down to Robins. And his openness to bringing in older players if the right opportunity comes about. Makes it sound like King wasn't as controlling and rigid as has been...

Same, way better than all the other candidates on the bookies list. Liam Rosenior is the only one on that list I'd take.

If it isn't Lampard and he is genuinely taking his time to appoint someone, it could be that he's eyeing up someone he has inside knowledge on them being on the verge of being sacked? Like a Russell Martin or something.

Fair point 😅 Was my spelling and grammar ok though? I need to know.

It's royally pissed off the majority of our fan base. A fan base that was so resolutely behind the team and the manager, even despite yet again a poor start. The perception outside of the club is it's an insane decision. That's, at the very least, the illusion of a club being a basket case...

If it was my money I'd definitely be very tetchy about sacking a manager who has a 100% success rate of turning results round at this club, for any of the candidates we're linked with. Even if it hasn't been a basket case decision, and Doug has thought long and hard, done his research, has good...

I hope someone asks him something along of the line of the implications we'll have going forward now he's exposed ourselves to the football world as another basket case club, with a lunatic owner who'll be remembered as the man who sacked Mark Robins. There's bound to be ramifications on...

It does to Doug, what if we'd won there and he wasn't able to sack Robins like he was dying to do?

Genuine question for Doug: "Are you at all concerned about the club's future ability to bring in personel of a certain quality, players or staff, now that you've outed yourself to the football world as another basket case owner?"

Whatever isn't working with the team, Robins is the best person, and only proven one out of those linked to be capable of turning it around. Now it's back on the managerial merry-go-round and back to back to mediocrity. If we do have to have someone other than Robins, I hope it's some unknown...
