    Doug King - Spineless

    For me King is your archetypal football owner. Cash rich yes, big ego yes, football nous no. It’s a scenario that has played out thousands of times. I believe that’s why we’ll end up with “a name” rather than necessarily a good manager.

    Mark Robins managing another team

    I think he might call it a day. Huge pay off. No need to deal with clueless egomaniacs. What’s not to like.

    The Big Question

    It’s King. No one will advise him and he’ll appoint whoever he wants. My money is on a cheap, statistics driven yes man with little football knowledge but a proven track record in process engineering.

    Two things will play out now which will be instructive. The job Robins goes to next and how we do under his replacement.
