At least he'll get to lead a team out for a Wembley final.

Still can't understand why he came back, especially for the reasons he left in the first place but anything has to be better than Slade!

Thinking about it for a

No. I don't think he did leave due to money such as higher salary, I think certain assurances and promises weren't forthcoming and backtracked upon such as back room staff, player recruitment etc. The football grapevine picked this up and Huddersfield moved in and made an offer which at the time he'd have been silly to refuse. Going to be interesting to find out the length of contract and if he brings in his own back room staff. He must have discussed the current state of our club not so much our league position that's there in black and white but the future such as our academy, where we might be playing in 18 months time, next seasons player budget etc, I wonder who did he have those discussions with and when.

I've heard it was for the money ie him having his salary quadrupled . but , why come back if the same regime is in charge and won't invest ?????

Slade had to go
If Robins is on a contract that covers the next couple of seasons and during that time gets the support in terms of squad building then great.
But right now, on the verge of relegation, find it hard to get excited by his appointment. To save us he needs 8 wins out of 11 games (most unlikely) so to me this season is a write off and the remaining games must be used to build momentum for next season. He has the same squad as Slade will be interesting to see what difference Robins can make in 11 games
The fact we have had 4 managers this season is just further evidence of the huge crisis the club is in

Good luck to him

So you think it may be prospective and more new owners that have asked for his appointment?
