Makes you wonder; why now? Why not when we appointed Slade if he was that interested in coming back? Who knows, had we got him, we might be a point or two closer to safety
Just for the record his stats at Huddersfield and Scunthorpe are about the same as mowbrays here over his whole tenure. Not great but hardly a disaster.
Who were Robins' backroom staff last time he was here? Anyone remember?
Oggy with his clipboard is obviously a given of course.
What hoss is gonna win the National, then?Now confirmed by the Coventry observer. . I will await apologies ! My soucrce bang on again!
I wonder if he will resign Clarke and tell it is time to stay at a club for a while? Neither of them took that advice!
Pick a number out of the hat on that one hahaWhat hoss is gonna win the National, then?
And beavon scored for themHe did indeed. He was marginally offside. And yes, what a brilliant night that was.
It was funny when Moussa did the same to them at their own ground, by scoring the equaliser in the last minute, after 7 added-on.
Is that true there, that comment that 18 of the clubs in League Two have ground capacities of 10,500 or less?
Squad wasn't THAT good.He did inherit a very good squad TBF.
But if he's here for next season too, then he should have a relatively decent budget for L2, any club going down and restructuring will do.
Got to say, if it is a proper contract and not a 6 month jobby, fair play to the board on this one. Proper manager given time to get things right for next season, which is what we all asked for. If it is an "until the end of the season" job, then it's a massive waste of everyone's time, he ain't gonna keep us up.
I seem to remember a thread that was very definite and confirmed about Willis leaving...........

Depends who wrote it. Could have been a Trinity Mirror staffer.Bit strange!

Yeah, me and my mate were talking on the way to the car after the Stockport game. "We're going to piss this league".
Maybe we're still paying him and we've made him come back!Robins has still got 2.5 years left on his original contract
Had a quick look for comments from Huddersfield and Scunthorpe fans and saw some Scunny fans giving him some of the credit for this seasons success saying he put the squad together but was unlucky with injuries.Just for the record his stats at Huddersfield and Scunthorpe are about the same as mowbrays here over his whole tenure.

And Scunthorpe I think only lost 25 out of 71 matches under his stewardship.Maybe we're still paying him and we've made him come back!

Portsmouth, Notts County, Carlisle, Blackpool, Plymouth, Doncaster all over 15K then its Wycombe on 10,300.Is that true there, that comment that 18 of the clubs in League Two have ground capacities of 10,500 or less?
Length of his contract will be critical. If he's here until the end of the season only I'd say there's a fair chance he'll go to Rotherham in the summer.Unfinished business, hope he doesn't do one when Rotherham come calling
Wilson didn't really breakthrough the season till after.Compared to now? It was fucking Barcelona. Murphy, Wood, Christie, Fleck, McSheffery, Baker, McGoldrick, Wilson.
Compare that to: Burge, Turnbull, Haynes, Rose, Reid, Jones, Tudgay, etc.

You wasn't alone. Two sides of the ground that day was sky blue, our new striker scoring on debut. Little did we know about just how poor Stockport were rather than that we were good.Yeah, me and my mate were talking on the way to the car after the Stockport game. "We're going to piss this league".

Absolutely and yet we thought it was shit then. I fear for the day in a few years when we look back on this season as the good old days.I thought it was like watching Brazil?
Club's been stripped bear in just a few short years.
If it is Robbins I sincerely hope we've got him on a decent length contract and not til the end of the season.
Also, do we still have any players from when he was here before?
Likewise you could say about any successful manager that they were lucky to have a goalscorer.
The fact they've managed to find one is a good thing.
Actually it was Thorn who lined up McGoldrickDoubt Shaw had control over transfer policy.
