I think this might be the 2nd match I take my lad to.

Choosing this one as I'd like to be there to give MR the reaction he deserves after the 7 years he had at the club. Totally deserves a great reception as an appreciation of everything he achieved for us. A nice send off if you will.

After that, it's forgotten for 90mins as I want nothing less than 3 points for Cov.

I'm pretty much sure FL is expecting and probably wouldn't begrudge the warmth and warm reception for MR.

He hasn't died.

Anything like that should be after the game, not during or before.

I'm liking the idea of that let Robins milk the crowd and then the stadium announcer can say the king is dead, God save the King, super Frankie Lampard who can run out the tunnel to raptious applause

Tommo1993 · Feb 17, 2025

Think Stoke fans might be a bit pissy with Robins if we beat them and he goes applauding our fans.

lord_garrincha · Feb 17, 2025

There will be utter & complete outrage when they score in the 7th minute, in a 1-0 defeat, when the crowd are applauding his 7 years & the players are furiously telling the oppo to put the ball out of play so they can join in!

Nick · Feb 17, 2025

Have the trust still got that coffin? Get it sorted.

No problem there-he can still mingle with all the queens……..

I’ve heard @Ring Of Steel will be there in a half and half shirt

Fucking hell mate, give it a rest. I know he hasn't died FFS.

All I've said is I'd like to be part of showing gratitude to someone who almost single handedly turned our club around over the course of 7 years.

Stop with all this crap insinuating that everyone is whacking off over MR still, pining for him and wishing he was our best mates.

I think he'll get a massive round of applause when he comes out of the tunnel.

After the game when we've whooped them 4-0, I doubt he'd do himself any favours with the Stoke lot, going out onto the pitch for a round of applause from the crowd.

I mean you're coming to this game to especially give him a "send off". Hope they have some half and half scarves left

Skyblueweeman · Feb 18, 2025

I don't get to go to games much so have to pick and choose and this is one where an ex manager of ours who is arguably one of of best ever, is back for the first time. It's hardly a stretch to see why its a good fixture for some to go to.

Half and half scarves...sure.

I don't get why you're soooo against anyone having an ounce of admiration for MR. Weird.

Please don't be serious about the scarves ffs

I'm just pointing out he isn't dead when people are going on about giving him a "send off".

Ha ha, I wasn't! Nick mentioned it...I couldn't think of anything worse.

He left after getting the sack (which was the right decision).

But after everything he did for the club, don't you think it would be nice to at least give him a good round of applause as a thank you?

Surely even Robins wouldn't want the clap

The clap, probably not.

This is the internet, which holds a very small minority of opinions, mostly negative. In reality, he will be clapped, cheered, sang about, loved and most probably have many sky blue fans waiting by the Stoke bus for his arrival.

Geezus christ - he isn't the Beatles

Tommo1993 · Feb 18, 2025

Just make sure anything in dedication to him is not during the game.

Those 90 minutes are for Lampard and the team.

Stupid question but I’ve never really noticed: do managers come out for the warmup or just at the start of the game? If it’s the start of the game everyone will be clapping anyway as the teams come out and we’re mid song medley.

I’ll be clapping from the 12th to the 13th minute then again from the 17th to the 24th. Hope you’ll join me.

Give him a great reception then send him away with no points

Managers normally have to do the busy work of meeting the ref, exchanging team sheets and the rest so don’t come out for warm ups at least at this level.

I think thats the only 'half and half' scarf I would ever buy.

A semi great idea!!!

What on earth are people expecting. Him to put on our shirt and do a Madders style lap of honour after the game?

If he doesn’t do that we’ll know he never truly loved us.

Weird to get so annoyed about people liking Robins.

I can point things out without being annoyed, it's pretty easy in fact.

Yeah but when does "pointing something out" spill over into something else.
