It would be a right shame but yep January if we are where you say and a lined up manager is there that wouldn’t be over bad

I think 5 more performances like that and King will lose patience. Possibly fewer.

Results are one thing but the displays have been alarmingly bad.

That was dreadful.
We've got a squad full of players with no winning mentality.
People laughed at those who wanted to bring Matty James in but we know he can change the mentality of a dressing room.

Needs to come from the manager and coaches if not on the pitch, I don’t see it in any of the backroom staff like we had with Viveash.

How long does he get a free pass without anybody being able to say he had a shocker or looks lost?

He definitely has , you're the same age as me , unless you enjoyed perennial struggle in the Premier league

I respect your opinion, you're not an overreactive idiot .

I think should he leave , we will end up back in a circle of bad appointments and change for a few years .
It's so hard to get it right , with so many changes throughout the club it's strange the blame is lay at the bloke who has not had a bad season with us yet

Will we though? We’ve got the resources to hand to a normal manager and probably do OK these days.

We haven't had a bad season under Robins and fans are after throwing him under the bus .. the only way it gets bettwr with anybody else is top 6 consistently and a promotion .

It's mental

My point is how much leeway does the rise from L2 give him? A season? Two? A relegation? Because you seem to be saying there’s no limit because of the first six years of his tenure.

I’m not Robins out but you simply cannot defend this start to the season. We’ve been completely out-thought tactically in the 4/6 of the league games so far and the management team have done very little to respond to it in game.

Nottingham Forest got promoted by binning off Hughton relatively early on and when they were putting in similar crap to what we’re serving up.

Get the appointment right and who knows.

This isn’t how anyone wanted or imagine it would end if he is sacked before January. But if these displays carry on for a few months more and we’re hovering above the drop zone, King has no choice.

And it is so plainly evident.
I mean, you could even see it if you were sat dead centre during the team photo shoot.

Not for me, I see being in and around the play offs at the start of April as a good season.

At the moment I think we'll struggle with that.

Fucking terrible. Second half worse than first

Simms is annoying and doesn't seem to try impact the game

Our subs r not making impact at all

We don't have a brand of football. Just pass at back alot. No one is brave. Yeah good riddance Kasey we so much better off now.

Rudoni and Eccles only good players today really.

Worrying. Robins needs to get us attacking or I fear king may decide he wants his own appointed manager in place at some point

£30m for 9th in the Championship isn’t good.

But we've not had a bad season yet in 7 .. expectations have been met and now fans want him gone again because of a few bad games without our captain etc ? Crazy mindset
