Leaving aside all the flannel, we seem to be saying that Robins has gone because of a petty-sounding quarrel with a coach, and an inability to bring in a quality replacement and set up a structure where they could work together. And now we’re buying a lottery ticket to determine the future of...

Why are you doing this?

Woke up this morning feelin' fine I've got Fat Frank on my mind Last night he stayed at a place near Binley Woods Something tells me he's eaten too much pud

That's 3 wins. So take away a small number of individual mistakes and dodgy decisions, and flip a couple of results that could easily have gone either way. And suddenly Doug no longer sees his investment threatened by relegation, but is eyeing the riches of the Prem with Robins still in charge...

I don't tend to read much of the gossipy stuff on here, so I may be wrong but I thought it was claimed a while back that some of the players didn't like AV's methods i.e. he was pushed out by player power? If so, did Robins back his players in that scenario?

No way that's Lampard. He's a much taller guy.

As will you Pete ;)

So if you're only allowed one question, which of the ones you listed above will you prioritise? The first one (What has Mark Robins done for us) wouldn't yield anything useful IMO.

Yeah, the idea that King has been in cahoots with his new guy for months appals me. But not as much as the idea of him literally sitting down now and starting to browse through a bunch of applications.

I doubt that, but it wasn't a trivial twist

Yep literally, stunning outfit too. I know the wedding planner at Coombe Abbey, and she’s just sent me this. There’s going to be a ceremony with Doug walking him up the aisle. I think his bum looks big tbh.

Maybe the owner is looking to save money by asking the players to build a new squad through procreation?

Beyond doubt, what’s posted on the internet must affect the environment around the club. The effect can be positive or negative, big or small. On the second point, yes it would be a strange company that decided to replace its existing product without even looking at customer reviews of it. Then...

👍 From our MI6 man in Italy (The name's Boy ... Sick Boy 😎)

It's most likely worse than that, taking a longer term view. Robins' tenure here for so many years was pretty much unique. The way it works across English football is that managers are churned on a very regular basis. If you don't deliver success within a couple of years (statistically most...

Well Dabo's penalty nearly ended up in the Amazon basin tbf

I like the chart, but any reason for including things like clearances, but not shots/shots on target?

I agree, and IMO the whole thing is a completely unnecessary risk because the team isn't anywhere near as bad as some people seem to think, and with a couple of smart signings in Jan I reckon we'd have finished well up the table. But we have to support somebody new. I wonder what the people...

There's something wrong with anybody who isn't confused.

I doubt that very much. The worth of having him in addition to Wright is being proved right now.
