Natural talent now working directly with one of the best midfielders of his generation. Rudi and Frank are a match made in heaven.

Been on it all day since the game so forgive my lateness, the obvious is Rodoni being immense, but BTA had the sub appearance of his season. Credit where it's due he was brilliant. Calling bta out in particular as he's been poor previously. He was brilliant today. Very happy for him.

It was nice to see.

He clearly has pace and talent but - rather like Kasey Palmer - he needs to improve his consistency. If he can do that he will be a very valuable player for us.

We don't do 'bogey' clubs but if we did they would equal Middlesbrough & Blunderland - Undeniable fact.

In hindsight it always looks the right decision when it works out OK. Truth is , and many would agree, Robin's probably would have achieved a similar outcome. He was never going to languish at 17th with the squad he had. But it is what it is, change can be a good thing and add impetus and Frank has done exactly that. Time will tell on his measure of success. Robin's had 8 years with brilliant success and Frank been here a little over half a season. I admired Frank as a player and if he turns out to be half as good as a manager then we will have more exciting times ahead.

Robins would have turned things around, I'm sure.

But I can't see any way that we would have ended up in a similar position.

Maybe top 10 at best, but more likely, mid table.

I absolutely loved the bloke, but he was getting too stubborn and was beginning to get a little stale in his thinking.

Lampard has done a fabulous job. Robins would never have managed the same. And what the hell was going on with Kitching? Gone from left in the wilderness under Robins, to being almost undroppable with FL in charge.

Robins would have certainly improved on 17th but let’s be honest here without Viveash he wasn’t looking the same manager.

Robins will always be a City legend but the vast majority of us have now moved on, those that haven’t seem to be those that wildly over reacted in the first place.

I would disagree slightly, because I was very vocal about Robins going and thought it was entirely wrong for him to be sacked. I am not so sure many at all, really wildly over reacted. There's always one or two that you get with everything, where they say "that's it, I am never going up again."

Always a few odd drama queens.

Anyway, for me, I was absolutely gutted when Robins went, but as soon as Lampard came in, I turned my focus on to him and started backing him.
Definitely moved on and now I don't even think about Robins much at all.

Glad he survived relegation with Stoke though. Want to see him do well (just not in the same division as us )
