They've just sold a player for £40m. That's 40 decent reasons right there.

Paul Cook has done a good job wherever he has been I wouldn't be surprised to see him linked to a lot of vacant postsHonesty I think a lot of people are disrespecting MR by questioning his commitment to the hard work he’s put into this club, I know they’d come running with more money but he came back to Cov as he likes the area! He had other options he could have taken... no one wanted us in our state of affairs back then! It’s like a Doyler scenario, Pompy we’re paying more and we’re going up... his lifestyle commitment and the kids played a big part in his move back this way.
This is a team he’s had to work hard to build, it’s where he’s achieved his highest achievements so far, on his merit alone with what he’s done here... he can guarantee a few other clubs down the line irrespective of what happens to us say even if we did get relegated next season! (Hope it never happens) But with everything he’s been saying and the fact of how hard he and the boys have worked to get to this stage I don’t think he’d want to not drive the car he’s built and got back on the road again before selling it off and moving onto his next project!
The management market does actually make me howl though, they’re saying John Terry, Tony Pulis and Paul Cook have a chance and are higher favourites than MR? I’d never have any of them... despite that neither will Bournemouth even good old hazza redders is in the list!
All in all, Mark Robins won’t be going anywhere (this season). I think we might be safe though if we do well next season as he will want to keep going at it and he seems committed to the long term building plan.
I don’t even know why we’re talking about this as he’s not even in the top favourites! More chance of Redknapp getting it than MR!

Agree but I’m talking about potential without a mega rich totally ego driven owner they are at best at League One clubWe do have more potential as a football club than Bournemouth but it would be mad to think we are more attractive to a player or manager at this present time

No questions asked we are, will be interesting to see what Bournemouth do! If they shit it this season they’ll have to decide if to go all in and spend or draw it back. If they do sell all these rumoured players though they’ll have themselves a mini PL like income this season... 40mil, King maybe 10-15? Wilson 10-15? I’m really waiting to see who they appoint, but if given the bankroll they’ll have a nice easy run and be able to poach most players after the money!
Reminder: they owe out £81m in transfer fees and only have £5m coming inwards. Huge deficit to fill before they can think of spending. This is the danger with not selling players at the top of their cycle.
A lot is going to depend on what happens regards wage capping and then there’s FPI not sure how that works either I think they will be up there challenging though.

£40m for Ake will help with King & Wilson to follow, plus continued PL payments for a few seasons. I expect them to spend, but just at a lower level. Not that I think he will go, but in those circumstances MR would be perfect for them.

Thing is... we have a bad season up to xmas and all sentiment will go out the window, and this place (amongst others) will be full of "Robins out"
I willreact to any post this season calling for Robins to leave.

That’s an odd one as I thought they wanted to get away from Howe, Bristol City are doing the same promoting from within
Oh Bournemouth think they are above Robins now... Disgraceful!Tindall appointed
close thread
He'll show them now!!Oh Bournemouth think they are above Robins now... Disgraceful!
Tindall appointed
close thread
I’ll just take it to the extreme and shit down their throat instead!Fed up of the negativity around managers not instantly getting results in hard leagues! Especially given what he’s done for us you can’t ever knock a man like him as he’s proven his worth and dedication!
We might be OK with it if Robins did go and we gave Viveash a chance? Probably more so if it was leaving with us in a good position and us looking at continuity though.That’s an odd one as I thought they wanted to get away from Howe, Bristol City are doing the same promoting from within
Ah it's always to see Reda Johnson's influence...
Gotta love that it's still on twitter! Still my favourite tweet ever.
Reda did his knee making that tweet and was out for 4 months
Seems the Sheaf deal possibly held up mate ? Anything your way mate ?Would love to see Tindall do well
But unfortunately I doubt it will work
A bit like Craig Shakespeare at Leicester
The easiest option but probably not the best for both parties
Most likely StuThought it was a strange appointment. He knows the players which is a positive but when a lot are Exiting and he has to pick up the rest to go again after relegation it seems a tall order. I think they will be playoffs but that won’t be good enough for the owner, sadly sacked during the season
Heard no more but all the players and most of the staff were off last weekSeems the Sheaf deal possibly held up mate ? Anything your way mate ?
