I agree with you about Chelsea Dagger, but it's interesting to note that Robins is so hands-on to even look at the music we walk out to. That can only be a good sign.
I very nearly bought the new PES yesterday as the reviews have been pretty good and people are saying it's almost a return to form. I've got FIFA winging its way to me in little under a week though so I surprised myself by resisting.
I'd hope that people don't get too impatient if the Robins regime doesn't fire on all cylinders immediately. The team of the matches preceding it deserve all the scorn, but tomorrow is like hitting a reset switch of sorts.
It doesn't necessarily paint Robins as a loan merchant. He took over outside of a transfer window for one thing, he doesn't really have too much in the way of choice.
