That's true, but nobody who's had groundbreaking achievements was ever likely to take the job.

This is it. He keeps coming back for more when I imagine he doesn't really need to financially. Maybe it's like riding a bike, and after a few spills he'll learn how to balance and there'll be no stopping him 🤷‍♂️

I increasingly suspect that you're not keen on Frank.

I was waiting for that :)

Fair enough, that's a perfectly understandable view. Like I said, I think there should be some permanent recognition, it's only a question of what form it takes. Have other clubs got multiple statues (genuine question)?

I have already said I don't think a statue of Robins is appropriate. You then chucked in Sillett, who I hadn't mentioned, and now you are back on Robins again I presume? I don't think I even disagree with you or Nick about any of this. What bugs me is people getting labelled as 'weird' and/or...

Crikey you pretend not to get my point when I accurately quote you in my response to you. Then choose to answer it by picking up my response to Grendel who had thrown in one of his red herrings.

But did a minority of fans keep calling for his head, and then support erecting a statue for him?

Fair enough, I get that and agree. But you call people weird all the time, then say you aren't against a statue of the bloke you called for to be sacked?

Robins Nest

I think Robins did more for this club than anyone in decades, and IMHO dismissing him was unfair, rash and an unnecessary risk to the club. However I'm with you on this point Nick. Jimmy Hill created the Sky Blues, galvanised the whole city in support of the club, and transformed the whole of...

I think that's more sensible than a statue tbh

Visions of a huge gang of SBT volunteers donning animal skins, and moving it across the CBS car park using a system of wooden levers and rollers, like the bluestones at Stonehenge 🤣

Is that a big can of King of Shaves gel they've presented him with?

But...but Frank is happy to just be a coach

Was it groundsmen for the Commonwealth Games?

Strange how people try and judge managers by quoting league positions when the difference between (say) 6th and (say) 18th in a league as competitive as the Championship can be just a few results over a 46 game season. There are so many other factors to take into account, beyond the control of...

Today I've brought the recycling bins in, chatted with the neighbour from across tbe road about Putin, sorted out a couple of outstanding bills with HSBC and British Gas, and have just had a nice piece of haddock (although it didn't really go with the baked beans left over from yesterday).

He isn't though, it's just that some people wierdly couldn't see his ability before. He's evolved, but not in a surprising way at all.

Be reassuring to think the owner had actually met the new team boss before appointing them though. Or maybe he has met them before, just a thought 🤷‍♂️
