The dinner lady suggested we go back to a back 5 after the international break, Robins had no choice but to go along with it as she was hand picked by King and has his ear.

Rubbish. I don’t think a single person expected a magically good performance tonight, and if they did then they are clueless as to the situation we’re in.
We absolutely wereWe weren’t close to this bad the last two years. And no it’s not just our league position. That’s the problem, it’s the coaches, the support staff, the owner.

Everybody is shit. Only robins has ever not been shit in his career.
A lot of it does seem to point to King doesn't it.
This bit certainly seems true.has decided after seven years to forget how to manage.
How do you know
You have officially gone crazy.You think all we need to do is replace Robins.
I think the club is rotten to the core.
We are not alike.
Conveniently forgotten. I'm sure all the coaching staff were employed against his will too.The head of recruitment was appointed by Robins
Because I’ve been conscious and supporting Coventry City the last seven years?
And I can read LinkedIn. And I don’t think making PowerPoints for the FA or failing to get Ghana out of a group with Mozambique in it match up to what I’ve seen.
I heard he doesn't get paid either and he's forced by the king brothers like a slave.Conveniently forgotten. I'm sure all the coaching staff were employed against his will too.

Robins is surrounded by world class players, coaches and support staff but has decided after seven years to forget how to manage.
We can all playog
Majority of managers have a certain shelf life ,when they have a golden period,I think Robins has reached that point.This bit certainly seems true.
Why are we unique? He's not the first manager to fall away. Sometimes you just need a change, this forum needs to accept it.
So we aren’t rotten to the core yet then.Just think we’re back where we were when Sisu took over on the pitch. And a few seasons of 17th quickly leads to problems off it.
So we aren’t rotten to the core yet then.
Big Mike happensWere rotten, we’ve just got the parachute of Viks money and whatever losses Doug has budgeted for. When he realises he’s not selling £30m of talent a season and we aren’t going up who knows what happens.
Big Mike happens
We need to stop peddling this, it’s not going to happen, it shouldn’t happenBig Mike happens
Yes, both their wide men had good games. Was it Smith on the other side who whipped in some great balls across the box? I was glad when he went off as DaSilva as usual couldn’t compete.
That was a much better side who won 3-0I remember April 2023 when we won 3-0 at QPR, it was a not dissimilar game to last night and QPR were on top for longer spells, we scored two breakaway goals in the last 5 minutes to put some gloss on it. This is when we were a side high in confidence pushing for a play off place.
Because of our current form the perception of last night's performance is much worse than the reality.
People like Doug King tend to be confident and believe they are right even with things they have little knowledge on (so he'd fit right in on here!). He's made a fair bit of money and that makes people think they're incredibly smart and know how to run everything.You reckon all those people came in against Robins' will and he's working with a gun to his head? Given Doug knows little about football i'd suggest Robins had a fair bit of input.
Was going to say on your last point, don’t think Marks ever been excited for anything but celebrating in front of a Wolves ball boyPeople like Doug King tend to be confident and belief they are right even with things they have little knowledge on (so he'd fit right in on here!). He's made a fair bit of money and that makes people think they're incredibly smart and know how to run everything.
I'm sure many of us have been in that organisation where someone higher up has these 'great ideas' that those actually running things think are shit. But because they're in charge it's a fait accompli and your choice is either to go along with it, smile and say nice words, or leave.
I think MR has chosen the former and will end up being forced into the latter. Although he has said stuff about supporting the new set-up, he's never come across as being enthusiastic about it (though he is naturally quite dour). I think it's more for PR and showing a united front rather than his genuine belief. I really don't think he has confidence in those around him.
You have to assume that we put a hold on Browne because it would have been either him or Stamenic, and hence Browne didn't feel valued and decided to go elsewhere. In reality we could have done with both and with the money we've spent subsequently I think we could have afforded both.I agree. Really want to know who decided to fuck Browne off for Stamenic too.
Can you name one poster who's said robins is blameless.
That was a much better side who won 3-0
With the remit to look for players that fit Doug King's model, so not older, experienced pros.The head of recruitment was appointed by Robins
Not sure if that is worrying or comforting. Could interpret that as Robins has always been a poor manager at this level and the only difference between now and then is Hamer and Gyokeres who papered over the cracks.I remember April 2023 when we won 3-0 at QPR, it was a not dissimilar game to last night and QPR were on top for longer spells, we scored two breakaway goals in the last 5 minutes to put some gloss on it.

Not really, we created as much last night as we did that dayNot sure if that is worrying or comforting. Could interpret that as Robins has always been a poor manager at this level and the only difference between now and then is Hamer and Gyokeres who papered over the cracks.
I know somebody who has been through the recruitment process at CCFC in the past two years and he was interviewed by Mark Robins and a now ex-member of staff (Not Adi or Dennis)The head of recruitment was appointed by Robins
We signed Torp and Rudoni for a combined £5.5m just to play them out of position, why would we treat EMC any differentEMC is now redundant in this system, where is he going to get games to justify the fee?
