No offence but it's hilarious you preaching about how king should be professional and keep it behind closed doors when the second you hear anything you come running on here

Am I the owner? No

so you admit king was not professional in name dropping Lampard tonight or airing dirty laundry to save face?

if anything it’s double standards by folk who say king is great at keeping things behind closed doors

that argument gone out the window tonight

it shows he’ll do anything to save face

Think it was more the other way around, with Robins saying he is difficult to work with that set it all up.

Issue with that though is if there (not saying there is) constant misinformation which damages trust in the club and this impacts the business, what is the owner meant to do if not come out and set the record straight?

It’s a damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Lampard is just his naivety in football imo since he’s being questioned on it all night but if you look into reports that’s a further along then he made out so might be a point where he’s comfortable to come out.

King has every right to defend himself after being called all the names under the sun and the likes of GIMOC constantly stirring the pot with their conspiracy theories. It’s up to us as individuals to choose what we believe. I’m sure some things he said were factual, whereas some things were no doubt twisted to suit his narrative.
People demanded an explanation and he gave one, not his fault that you didn’t like the answers. If he stayed silent or only answered pre-approved questions he’d have got hammered anyway so I have no issue with him telling his side of the story

I didn't hear anything, I wasn't there.

I know you've spouted all sorts of bollocks on here. The sakamoto one was the worst one and you've never once acknowledged you made a mistake in posting it.

You've posted tonight saying the coaches are worried for their jobs. Would they want that information on a public forum? You've posted some screenshot I missed which apparently stated players didn't fancy it on Saturday or Sheaf woke up and tild them he oeuldnt play. Again, is that for public knowledge? The fact you've deleted it suggests not

it’s public forum

I deleteded because I felt it necessarily but doesn’t hide from the fact what I was told

I don’t own the club nor do I preach working behind closed doors

king tonight showed his true colours if you rather rant about me then carry on but If you think I’m out of order for posting something and king isn’t then I’m afraid you suffer with bad dose of double standards

To be fair said this over saddle. No harm in posting sharing information.

Just wish people who understand they aren’t news outlets and there should be a huge pinch of salt in both the news and opinions given.

Maybe I'm hoping, but the fact King has said he wants an elite coach and tactician would make Lampard unlikely. I don't see how you look at Lampards record and think that's a high level tactician.

I have a stupid question on the structure.

Might have dreamt this but is King seeking both a Head Coach and an Assistant (i.e. MR and AV mark 2). And do we expect the new Head Coach to bring in his own Assistant?

And did I hear somewhere that we were looking for a Director of Football - or is that in my imagination? If so what are the responsibilities of the Director of Football?

Looks to me as a complete outsider that King was very certain that MR should bring in a highly qualified assistant after AV left but it didn't happen (anyone have any ideas why not) - and King was far from certain that the structure could work without a highly qualified senior coach.

Yes to the first two. I got the impression that AV was more tactically astute than Robins and King thought Robins would get exposed without a similar figure.

So would expect a new head coach to bring in an assistant at least.

Doug said he would due to the new structure of a head coach look to sign a director of football. In essence this job deals with all the work Doug has been doing. Sets budgets, signs and negotiates deals. They become the person responsible for the footballing side of the club so have control over signings, sacking the manager or recruitment analysts.

No manager gets 100% of what they want but having heard what King had to say I'm certain Robins received pretty much what he asked for and was given tools to succeed. It didn't work unfortunately, that's the end of it. The club comes first, always. Here's to a hopefully entertaining remainder of the season and a sustained push next season.
