Think King is doing the right thing, seems people don't want Robins removed, but something has to change so therefore something has to give.

I mean its not like it's just been 1 thing though is it?

Granted there's the odd occasion things have been wrong but even GIMOC gets it right on things

There's a lot of people who just don't want to believe things though. And that's fine, their perogative

Ask yourself if MR really wants the team sheet to be leaked out on the internet days in advance, same for back room falling out, the reasons behind players getting dropped out etc.

At a time when his job is probably now on the line, none of this helps. I’m sure if he is pushed out he’ll have more than enough to say then.

I think this is more for personal self congratulatory reasons than actually doing whats best for the club. There's always people like this somewhere in the world.

I like Saddle as a poster generally, just think he needs to question if it’s always the right thing to share these leaks. Whoever’s feeding him the information will have their own agenda and perspective that surely won’t be a 100% objective account. Unless it’s the team sheet, which is just unprofessional.

Yes actually it was, a few times.

I don’t understand what you think you’re achieving with this silly schoolboy gossip stuff apart from you think it makes you look good, an ego thing.

Team sheets is one thing, but when you’re at the point that you’re excitedly babbling second hand gossip around how someone may or may not be feeling, that’s just pathetic tbh.

I really dislike this gossipy drama queen bullshit.

Whoever your ‘source’ is is a scumbag, and I don’t give a toss if it’s one of the players or the tea lady. They should be got rid of. No organisation would see this constant leaking as healthy, it only makes things worse, yet you’re feeding into it & plastering every half baked theory all over here, as it makes you feel big. Some people seem to like the scandal & rumour and that’s their business- I hate it.

Totally agree. I used to get things sometimes and kept it private. I did DM a couple of people on here, very rarely hear anything now,but in all that I sent, I never ever shared anything negative and don't see what good can come of it. In fact I asked specifically not to be told if it wasn't about a transfer or good news etc as I'd managed to enjoy being a fan for many years without learning truths and half-truths 5 minutes before anyone.

Rumour, conjecture, opinion all fine. Leaking important stuff that can harm the club in any way needs to be snuffed out.

There is a way of doing it I can respect, like when we were in for BTA. The club’s in a difficult position right now and just because you can leak something doesn’t mean you should.

Last time someone leaked the team sheet at Everton, Dychey had them in a headlock all week. Never happened since.

Back on topic, what do we think of Chris Ramsey. Seems to have high stock in the game.

Also do we think anyone might be sent back to there old coaching roles or we’ll have a coaching team including the new 4.

this is only going off memory, but isn’t he one of those where they’re really highly regarded as a coach, but who crash & burn badly when put in the hotseat as manager?

QPR were an absolute shambles when he took the reins in all fairness

Assembled a grossly overpaid squad of mercenaries who were not interested and by the time he’d taken over the writing was very much on the wall

QPR fans still say they are paying for their hyper overspending in their Premier League days to this day

I’d say both. People should think before repeating any old bullshit in the full knowledge it’s harmful to the club.

Just because someone tells you something, doesn’t mean your immediate reaction should be to put it up on SBT in a desperate attempt to be seen as “itk”

I dunno, I'd rather see my football team be successful than make some random internet person become upset. Life priorities I guess.

How is any of it really harmful to the club? It's easy to work out what's the rumour and what's saddle's and/or another's speculation.

Very much so

Try shouting about it and taking the moral high ground though, it means you're a better person

If you're wrong, then you're spreading lies about Robins at a time when he's going through personal issues, and could potentially create a situation where the lies become common and widespread knowledge. Which potentially could lead to personnel at the club choosing to believe that Robins genuinely feels that way, even though it was just a maliciously started rumour.

Unless you got your info directly from Robins mouth of course.

Posting the team sheet in advance of the game clearly could be harmful to the club depending on how far in advance it's done or how likely the opposition are to look somewhere like here

Yeah, the opposition are going to completely ignore the preparations they've made through the week off the back of a rumour they've seen on SBT
