There is something fishy about all this!

On the day Robins brings in a left back to cover Blair Adams, he suddenly decides he's had enough and is going to go to Huddersfield.

Now I may just be trying to find a resonable excuse for why he's leaving but could SISU be putting us up for sale or into administration?

Maybe MR is leaving because if he stays he could be out of a job within the next few weeks and the Huddersfields job is a safe perminant job for him?

Yeh he could probably just be doing it because he's ambitious and doesn't want to be stuck in League 1 for another season working for SISU.

OR

Our worst fears are being realised and our club isn't as stable as SISU, Fisher or Waggot would actually like us to believe!

It would certainly explain why SISU have dragged out this rent problem because maybe they really don't have the money to pay for it.

Oh God I'm so down right now it's unbelievable

Look on the bright side, at least you're not justifying being a real fan!

I'm guessing Robins had little input on the Dickinson loan, probably mostly done by Waggot

They wanted compo.
Maybe that was not favourable to all parties?

Seriously what chance do we have if any sign of success on the pitch results in other clubs poaching our manager or best players. We have to find a way to hang on to them, if only for a full feckin season.

The defining factor will be a big fat pay cheque nothing more or less

Signing a left back is the professional thing to do, regardless. Would have been lined up earlier in the week

And now It could really be coming back to haunt us with a vegeance!

It's all about the image they portray to the fans.

They turned down the approach because they want to show the fans they tried their best to keep Robins.

Therefore they come out smelling of roses (kinda) while Robins becomes the scape goat (and general hate figure) to the fans.

It then covers for them while they pocket the 6 figure sum and walk away from the club!

I guess he wanted to keep mcg, but Sisu would not support the requirement. Now we have lost our ability to score in every game (quite a few nils since New Year's Day)

I am surmising, but it's looking like mr was not getting everything he wanted. So he walked.

Not sure how we go forward, but we have to stand up and be counted, as a club, team and fans.

He's signed loads of players so he can't say he hasn't been backed.

He walked from Barnsley too. And you know what, I bet he does to them too eventually.

Yes, quite probably , Torch.

Sad thing is, that if we had kept DMG as well as the others, we would possibly have won several of the games we have recently lost ( Shrewsbury -DMglooked disinterested-, Carlisle, Crewe, Yeovil, we failed to score in all of them, but had a shit load of chances)

Not saying he is right or wrong, because we don't know what has happened, just suspecting that he may have felt we were on the edge of success, and a little bit of faith could have resulted in the club going forward. We have been here so many times of course........
