    Noise from the players is deafening

    Her role is to create the right environment in the broad sense for athletes to perform to their physical and mental potential. She isn’t taking training, picking teams, picking tactics, deciding formations, making or not making substitutions, identifying players in foreign markets etc etc...

    Noise from the players is deafening

    I would have kept Robins for longer but its also fair to say in his entire career he has only got one team promoted directly 9 ie not via the play offs ) once and that was the aborted Covid season. We all love Mark but its hard to argue that he comes with a strong track record of taking teams...

    Noise from the players is deafening

    I spoke to the CEO of a leading EFL club last night, who I know through business. He said there is a feeling in the game that Robins does best when there is little expectation upon him or the team and everything is upside, but copes less well when the pressure is on him to achieve. I thought...

    Noise from the players is deafening

    Jesus some of the views on here are from the 1980’s. It’s like Jurassic park. We were materially under invested under SISU and Robns kept calling it out. That’s why we didn’t have many of the additions we have today. It was nothing to do with City being “different” or Robins not wanting these...

    Noise from the players is deafening

    That’s the right decision for King. Too much emotion flying around at the moment. He’s right to let the dust settle, make material progress on the successor and then have more to say when he does speak.

    Head Coach rather than Manager

    The level of DK paranoia on here is incredible. head coaches are in situ in almost all the major leagues, is to give DK more control at those clubs as well ??

    NEW CHANT

    This is elite spot where players and managers earn a fortune to deliver results. When they stop producing managers get rid of players, owners get rid of managers. It’s hard to argue that the team has performed consistently well for the last 9 months but naturally we all like Mark and many of...

    NEW CHANT

    Last 9 months we’ve been bobbins Some blame King, I blame Robins At some point we had to draw the line Pick the right new manager we’ll be fine btw I would have given Robins longer but to suggest the decision is ridiculous is in itself ridiculous. Not a single derby player would make our...
