    Honestly sir, I don't think my research matters a jot. In the small time I allowed myself I learnt that he took one of the biggest clubs in Norway from the 2nd tier back to the top division. Google used to be useful but now it won't even tell me if Eric Hornland speaks English. The modern world...

    God I'm getting old - to me this just sounds like the kind of Chat-gpt appointment that got us into this mess. 😂

    Robins on CWR

    At the risk of kicking the ant hill we have a sports psychologist in a very senior position who you would kinda hope would be all over this.

    So... I was a little tongue in cheek (tbh I am still in the (admittedly increasingly delusional) Robins will fix this camp) but are we really judging Carsley on one of his first games 12 years ago when he was in his 30s?

    Okay... how about some high quality tuchel merch? Or the left over 'Southgate turns me on' pencils?

    Worth asking Carsley imo. Maybe he could use his FA contacts to get us a couple of half decent referees.

    Poll: Will there be a "Robins in or out" part 3 poll this weekend?

    Because Preston are rubbish? I have it too... we have to turn up at some stage right? It is the hope that kills you...

    Coventry City U21s v Birmingham City tonight

    Surely scoring a bag full of goals is better for his CV than anything else he could be doing tonight?

    Coventry City U21s v Birmingham City tonight

    Not sure why everyone wants to read something into him getting a game tonight. Whatever the history - for a guy we haven't seen score before, 60 minutes on a Tuesday and 4 goals sets him up nicely for the weekend.

    Transfer Rumour Oliver Dovin

    Faced 2 shots, conceded 3 goals. Not what he would have been hoping for bless. Let's hope north Macedonia do the business for them.

    Transfer Rumour Oliver Dovin

    Cult of Wilson 😅 It's like last summer when we thought he was leaving we all met up outside Zizzis to take the poison. I don't remember anyone saying they were bothered if he left. It's literally just that some of us don't get the absolute hatred for a guy who has 'done okay' and was a big...

    Transfer Rumour Oliver Dovin

    Am I the only person that is annoyed this is even a story? U21s is a development squad. It should be a safe space to prep for real internationals. Keepers make errors. Sweden still won. Did he make any saves that contributed to that? Idk - let's just make a massive issue of the one he let in...

    Spent £10m on L1 players

    Fair enough, others seem to disagree and my memory isn't what it was so I retract my original statement.

    Spent £10m on L1 players

    BTA did after EMC got subbed off. Haven't seen Robins kicking off about it. Idk but feels like an instruction to me.

    Spent £10m on L1 players

    Doug is literally p!ssing himself about the £3m promotion installments he has been handing out.

    The “too many cooks” theory

    If we were having a player of the season thus far award Eccles probably wins it for me... and it's possibly not even close. I'd be interested to hear any counter argument.

    The “too many cooks” theory

    For me there are a few things here. Wednesday played better, their defenders seemed to have a better measure of BTA and they didn't gift us a second goal to kill off the game. But I also think the energy in midfield dropped off a cliff. Not sure Sheaf is ready for the number of minutes he put...

    Bassette

    I feel people are slightly exaggerating how bad Simms has been 'this season'. He had a good game against Watford, scored and was then promptly dropped. He could have had 2 assists against Spurs if other players had put away chances. Since then he has had a couple of minutes against Blackburn...

    Poll: Robins In or Out? Part 2

    Whilst we may disagree on 'in/out' I find it really hard to argue with this. The finger pointing here - the players aren't good enough, Doug's mantra, coaching changes, the performance director... for me a lot of this is irrelevant and some of it borderline silly. The set up of the team, the...

    Poll: Robins In or Out? Part 2

    Nope. Not for me. If Robins goes for any reason and Edwards comes in, I'll get behind him and it might all work out for the best but would I swap them? No.
