I don't think they specifically announce to the press they're holding a pre match one, but it seems they have done here.

Indeed. Shows he was able to motivate the players. I really hope he does well.

So King should have kept Robins in place, knowing he was going to sack him and openly shop around behind his back for a replacement?
Click to expand...
Exactly. Imagine the outcry if Robins had left after a media outlet had leaked we were sounding out replacements And he had confronted DK. City fans would have said he deserved better treatment etc.

We hope the next manager will be with us for years not a handful of matches. If it takes a little longer bit we make the right decision that’s all that matters.

Once this appointment has failed and sacking Robins and hiring a fucking idiot named Lampard was proven to be the worst decision in our club's recent history.
Dean Austin and that Clair need to be forced out our club.

Sacking Mark Robins for Lampard is the worst decision.

Look around the fucking league, is their 1 fan from any club that thinks this whole fuck up was a good idea.
Only King and his idiots

I’m not over enamoured by Lampard by any stretch but comparing him to Rooney is slightly different.

I also prefer him over names like Rowett, Schumacher, Bloomfield

Pretty sure moving the club to Northampton is still going to be a worse decision than sacking Robins

Sacking your manager because results aren’t good enough and you’re worried about relegation only to let an incredibly inexperienced interim coach take charge of at least 3 games. Makes sense.
Click to expand...

Whilst this is more aimed at some fans rather than the owner (although it may still be applicable), also see similair logic: 'We're too far behind and too far into the season to expect a playoff push now'.

Should have just let Robins try to turn it around if you're just going to write the season off like that.

Or you recognise the pattern of 3 years in a row where we start shockingly and try to change that for next season?

Am I one of the only ones not fussed by the wait, or feeling impatient?

My stance now is it will happen when it happens. Should have happened before of course, but we are past that now and the new bloke won't have any time to work with the players before Sheff Utd and Burnley.

We all pretty much seem to think it will be Lampard don't we and it's not like there is another club waiting in the wings for him.

If there had been competition with other clubs over a manager, I would be a bit more concerned, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

So this is pretty much me at the moment.



Almost exactly the same, but without the pool and costume.

Just picture that above, but me in a fluffy dressing gown, wrapped in a big blanket, freezing my tits off.

it's a typo as "the" isn't a pronoun, understand pronouns if you are going to try and be smart.

We’re a Championship football club, not some run of the mill office job sticking their vacancies on Indeed. It’s possible to have a short list of potential candidates in mind ready to go without openly shopping around behind the previous managers back. ‘Waiting to see who applies’ is incredibly lower league.

I know all King had to do was speak 5 words publicly for the fanbase to decide he’s the untouchable savour again but I think it’s pretty well earned criticism when he’s the one who was talking about expectations for the season not being met while simultaneously pissing weeks away with a novice interim in charge.

That won’t decide our season, getting the appointment right will.

If we haven’t got someone in by Cardiff I’ll agree with you but for now just chill lol.

He has a right to respond to someone who is refusing to see any reason why a chairmen would replace a manager with another one.

But on this occasion only 33% of the previous successful coaching team remain. Big difference.
