It's not looking for a gotcha. It's trying to break a narrative which in my opinion simply isn't true and that's people trying to put all the blame for everything that's gone wrong on Robins.

He hasn't lost 45 mil. There's definitely been some duff signings but I'd imagine we'll turn a profit on Wright, MVE, EMC and Bassette.

So if Robins said it its gospel, if King said it, ignore it its bullshit? I just don't get this logic. I don't think for one minute Robins was 100% responsible for recruitment no matter what he said, though he definitely has to shoulder his share of the blame.

Doug Kings own words we have a top 6, EPL fit deck.

We're conceding 2 goals plus on a regular basis. We need to stop that and build from there.

He needs to be more pragmatic or it will be his downfall. Tighten it up, for now.

Pity the same couldn't be said for the goals, we might not concede as many!

If he does start then we need to support him. Sarcastic cheering and getting on his case aren't going to help.

Which would be lunacy

I don't but it's all hypothetical until it happens. We've had people gunning for Robins for a long time. And we've been down the changing managers after half a season route, it didn't prove very fruitful.

I may be being overly optimistic but I don't think it will come to this.

The problem is we're not going to make much of a profit on anyone, Sheaf we should make a bit, but not as much as we would of last summer. I'm not sure how that will play out with King and whether he'll be happy to bomb people out. My first step would be to get some old heads in and see if...

I don't know if that's 100% accurate but I think it's a fair assessment. I just hope King allows Lampard to bring in some experience.

I've changed my mind on a few things through this saga and apportioned blame on Robins for stuff I previously exonerated him for but it will take a lot to convince me that stripping the squad if experience is on him.

So how do we know that's down to Robins? Oh yeah, he said something in the local media so it must be true. The same media King made his comments in that we should just ignore!! I think the truth is a bit more nuanced than on Robin, not on Robins but people seem to want to blame every bit of...

I'm happy to debate it either way, include or exclude last season. But if you include the end of last season then Robins bad run started after we best Leeds, so 6 games. Add that on to the 14 we got this season that's 20 games, are the people who were calling for Robins going to start calling...

Again, people include last season when it suits and ignore it when it suits. King said this is a top 6 deck that's EPL fit so the players are good enough aren't they?

Of course it is. People are holding a fella who just walked in the door to a different standard than a fella who was here nearly 8 years and rebuilt the club, that's nonsensical.

If he doesn't appear between now and the cup game his time here is surely over, but you'd think hed get some minutes given the amount of games in the next 12 days or so

I can't imagine how bad Dovin must be in training.
