Pearson is not a top manager though. His record since proves my point

Who was that out of interest? I have blocked a lot of that period out haha

When Leicester got promoted back to the premier league The club’s owner bankrolled Leicester’s rise from the Championship with more than £100m investment. As I say anyone would have got them promoted. Pearson is shite

Yeah the football league changed the rules not long after didn’t they? Basically back then you could get into loads of debt and start again without any repercussions. We should have done it!

And what has he done since then?

Robins is currently the most successful manager in the country outside of the premier league. Any manager would have got that Leicester team promoted, they cheated their way out of administration and the new owners poured loads of money in

What’s that got to do with success? I’d take Robins over Pearson all day long. Aidy Hoofroyd managed in the premier league, doesn’t make him a good manager

He’s a jobber, Robins is more successful, that is a fact

The budget is irrelevant according to some on here

Robins is a better manager than Pearson

When I say embarrassing I meant that they would come straight back down with a similar points tally as Sheffield United. They’d get a premier league pay day though so it would set them up well for the future. I like seeing them do well but I worry about the reality if they achieve promotion

I respect the way Barnsley approach the game. However they are an anomaly this season. If they got to the premier league it would be embarrassing.

Hoofroyd should never have been near the job in the first place

Stop pretending that you’re ‘in the know’ G. So far you have been wrong about most things. Only thing I agree on is that Max and Wilson are shite, the rest you just talk bollocks to be honest. Wouldn’t have you any other way though!

Is he the next Ivan Toney?

Robins has worked wonders in reality. He managed us to a league title playing at Birmingham City’s stadium, took us from the bottom division to the championship, so far has us above water in the championship, hasn’t had a large budget to work with (although according to some this doesn’t matter)...

That’s not good enough for some people. We are shit but shouldn’t lose any games and the budget doesn’t matter apparently. Makes me wonder if these people know anything

There are only a couple on that list we’d have a realistic chance of signing

Neither Warne or Robins are as knowledgeable as our G though
