    OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked

    re: The Fans Forum with Doug next week. Why did Viveash leave, and was Robins consulted / involved in that decision? Was Robins involved with new coaches recruitment process? I think the "Real" answers to those questions above will tell us a lot. Bottom Line - We've been poor this season...

    OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked

    If you take out the emotional side of things, and past achievements. The performances and results post January last season have been poor (discounting the Leeds, Wolves & Man U games from last season, 2 of which were in the cup). This season has continued the trend of last. We've played...

    Your Top 3 MR Moments

    1) Notts Country (a) - League 2 Play Off Semi Final Such a brave attacking performance. We got a little lucky with the disallowed goal for Country in the 2nd half, but we looked miles above Notts, and McNulty's goal was a thing of beauty. 2) Stoke (h) - FA Cup 3rd Round League 2 team beating a...

    OFFICIAL: Mark Robins has been sacked

    I am shocked, with a shot of disappointment. Last night was really bad however, failing to create much in 90 mins against a limited side. His interview on CWR was worrying, calling out players, and basically not understanding the fall in performance levels from the last 2 games. I guess his job...

    Robins on cwr

    He changed it on the hour. We were horrendous before that, against one of the worst teams I’ve seen at the CBS for a long time. He absolutely had to change it on 30 mins. 1-0 down at home and creating absolutely nothing. We had plenty options on the bench to mix things up (Dasilva, Torp...

    Viktor Moving on

    When did Viveash say this?! Doesn't surprise me. The alleged training ground bust up with Godden before the Norwich away game in October 2022, the berating of younger players for not passing to him. However some players are like this, and it probably helps them being the player they are...

    Mason-Clark

    Robins didn't want him to go as I recall, when the Reading deal fell through. He said he was relieved. If we lose a couple of strikers through injury at the same time during the season, he will be needed (even if just off the bench) and he can play wide if we switch formations. He's probably off...

    Josh Eccles

    Sheaf, Eccles and Sakamoto. That will be our Promotion winning midfield.

    Does the new formation change January targets?

    Glad to see the back of 4-3-3 to be honest. We have 4 CF's who are all decent. We now know, Haji needs to be played down the middle. Sakamoto can play AM, with aplomb.. As for Mason-Clark and Rodrigues,. Excellent choices for when we do switch formation in games, or if we need to push the...

    Transfer Rumour Matty James

    Should of given Kelly a 12 month deal. He did OK last season when called upon.

    We rarely beat Derby. Wouldn’t surprise me that we pick up an unconvincing point on Weds, and beat Sunderland on Sat.

    Ball carrying centre halves

    Kitching has good distribution. He's very similar to Harry McGuire. Technically quite good, and a sound passer but not very fast. People forget he was one of the main reasons for our brilliant run from Nov-Feb last season. He lost form (as did others) at the end of the season. This season he's...

    Spot on. Best performance of the season. Sheaf back to his very best The return to form of Simms and MVE Smart, quality substitutions.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Luton Town Match Thread - Saturday 26th Oct

    Before the game, I thought if we win it’s going to be a scrappy 1-0, and a workmanlike performance. To play that well and come back from 0-2 is a credit to the players and Robins. Luton were horrendous. Feel sorry for Kitching as I don’t think he’d let Adebayo score that 2nd goal . Binks had a...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Luton Town Match Thread - Saturday 26th Oct

    Remember that first season back up (20/21). We started with the box formatiion that got us promoted and played some lovely stuff, but leaked goals for fun, and couldn't score enough. Robins changed us to a more direct side and it got us to safety. We never played the pretty passing, box...

    Transfer Rumour Brandon Thomas-Asante

    I think Simms starts Saturday with Wright, if we're playing the 5-3-2 formation again.

    Robins Out Poll pt3

    I don't want Robins gone. Not yet anyway. We need to turn it around, and go on a run, which hopefully started last night. Last season's run began with a uninspiring 0-0 against Stoke. I think we have defended fairly well in the last 2 games but have been wasteful in the forward areas. If...

    Back to 4-3-3. Torp for injured Eccles, and play Rudoni deeper Binks left back, and Kitching in for Lati Mason Clark and Sakamoto wide Wright down the middle.

    Simms despite his miss, at least looked dangerous when he came on, unlike Thomas-Asante.

    Dovin

    He was at fault for the goal, but Dovin is way better than Wilson. This tactic of knocking it around between our defenders and GK is suicide when you have Lati in the middle who looks like a nervous child when the ball comes into his feet, and Thomas who makes regular wild passes. Both are...
