During pre-season even Robins was talking about play offs, and having this great squad to have a real push. Few weeks into the season he's telling everyone to reign in expectations. I think THAT, very there, was the end of MR.

Yeah, I got that feeling too. I like that it seems he's done his due diligence. This is a massive job for him. Would he have taken over at Preston, Millwall or QPR? Don't think so. If you looked at the attacking players at his disposal at Everton, a few weeks before he got the chop - Demarai...

I think it is fairly balanced, apart from being a CM short. We can switch formations easily, 2 left footed CBs / 2 right footed CBs. Haven't seen many players playing way out of position this season e.g Eccles at RWB, Dabo, Sheaf or Bidwell at CB (all happended in recent times).

Quite happy with appointment. Lampard has a definite point to prove, and his season at Derby & 1st stint at Chelsea were pretty good. He's a smart bloke, so has obviously looked at our squad and club, and believes he can be successful here. He'll need a good start though. He won't get the...

There must be another name in the reckoning, along with Lampard. Unreported, so possibly a foreign coach. If King approached another club for a manager e.g Blackburn for Eustace, would it always be disclosed? Or can these things be done on the hush.

Kitching should start every game. He’s our toughest CB. Thought he played well at Sunderland but then loses his place Collins - I’m done with him. He lets in powder puff shots, that are close to him, and doesn’t command his box. Dovin needs to be back on Sat. MVE - Frustrating. The constant...

Carr bottled it tonight. Burnley were bang average, but we were so defensive in the 1st half. I haven’t seen such a negative game-plan from us for a long time. Thought we actually did alright defensively in that half, but way too much respect given to the opposition. Robins wouldn’t have played...

Just watched a press conference he did (in English) on YT. Impressive. Same vibe I got from watching Viveash’s first interview during L1 winning season . Charisma, and that steely eyed determination.

Prefer Lati in midfield to be honest, and would like to see Kitching get a run.

Absolutely not.He had bags of money at Forest when they went up. He’s lost 2 jobs in as many years. We need someone with a hunger, not a guy who’s having to reluctantly drop a league to stay in work.

Decent player. Can cover multiple positions. I’ve liked him at DM (Leeds away last season, Sunderland away this season). He was furious being taken off yesterday. That’s what I want to see. Technically he’s not great, and doesn’t have a lot of pace, but tackles well and is a good organiser. You...

Can’t believe what I’m reading here. We were all over them.It was a great performance .They are good defensively and parked the bus as soon as they went down to 10. We had enough chances on the 2nd half to win, Thomas Asante (twice), MVE hit the post and the Thomas header.

The new Head Coach will be excited to work with these players (presumably he watched the game) we controlled the game. Sheffield’s time wasting for the whole 2nd half tells you all you need to know. The Hound is going to be huge! Dasilva although sleeping for their first was excellent. Thomas...

On the contrary, I think he could really improve Sheaf, Rudoni & Eccles. He's had 3 jobs. 2 of those clubs were basket cases at the time but he kept Everton up and got Chelsea into Europe (under a transfrer embargo). Derby made the play off final in his one season. He's a smart bloke, was a...

King was in a hard position. To be fair to him, he let Viveash leave quietly in the summer, and backed Robins to bring in his new coaching team. He had months of keyboard warriors saying that he was going behind Robins back, forced Adi out and slapped a new coaching structure down.

Robins is distrustful of the media. There were run ins with Turner at the CET. His post match interviews on CWR were rambling match reports When he's asked more pressing questions, injury updates, performance levels or transfer business he shuts it down immediately, with short, snappy answers...

RVN is the sexy appointment, but also dangerous. Will he adapt to managing in the Championship? Will he really buy into CCFC and its ambitions? No doubt ,if he's even semi successful, he'd be off. Lampard would be a more solid appointment. Managed in the Championship before, and would need to...

If any applicant has suggested this, then bin him off immediately. We can beat both of these playing at our best.

If it is Lampard. Then has to be 4-3-3 at home. Collins MVE Thomas Kitching Binks Sheaf Eccles Torp Sakamoto Simms Mason-Clark
