    Let's hope this is one of those Robins moments where out of adversity he finds a winning formula

    I think your initial assessment will prove to be correct. Think they'll be up there at the end, play off shake up minimum.

    Got to admit I understimated Kelly's worth.

    Was probably a t bit of truth in it up until the mid 80s

    That's fair enough, but it might conclude Robins isn't the issue and changes need making elsewhere.

    But you'd agree that a thorough review of all the changes and the affect, if any, they've had on Robins role would be prudent before pulling the trigger? Or is getting rid of the managers ingrained in your physce you won't accept anything else? That going to be weird for you if we pull off a...

    The hit rate of successful managerial appointments in this division is poor. So I'm not suggesting we turn in to Stoke or Watford with one change as you well know. But what if that one's wrong, and the next one? Not sure how long you've been following city but we've been down that route many...

    Loved Sillett but think that was a big error on his part.

    There's rumours but could be, and probably is, bollocks

    He was also hung out to dry by Sillett because he,was told to curb his attacking tendencies so as not to expose Downes who sillett loved.

    So this is where I am. Clubs in this league rip through an insane amount of managers, picking up the associated costs which must be huge for certain clubs, Stoke, Watford etc. More often than not the new man comes in, gets a bounce, then it goes to shit and they start the process again...

    We played a lot of good football 2nd and 3rd season back in championship as well as L1 winning year. It's mad how people try to denigrate our achievements to prove a point. We even had people doing it regarding the FA cup win when they were arguing Robins was a better manager than Sillett. This...

    Given the way Luton play I cant see tomorrow being anything other than a scrap, hopefully we emerge from it with 3 points.

    I think we need wins. And even if we win tomorrow I won't be that happy because there's no guarantee we'll build on it, like we didn't with Blackburn.

    We just need to start picking up points. We did it when we first came up, scraping out points playing pretty turgid football and the attractive football followed. As unpalatable as it may seem, I think that's what we need to get back to, and I stand by the post you replied to, there are people...

    Some people are that desperate to get rid of Robins that turning it round and winning won't be good enough for them, we have to morph into Puskas's Real Madrid while doing it, and even if we do they'll move the goalposts again.

    What's one incident with the support in several seasons got to do with how good he was in the dressing room or how strong a character he was? Fairly sure Vik also had a bit of spat with the support at one point. I'd prefer that to the current bunch of wall flowers.
