Do we really want to get on that merry go round unless absolutely necessary?
Compo for Robins, compo for any other coaching staff who are surplus to requirements.
Rinse and repeat.

Feck it. He’s more too cents. If anyone at rhe club reads this shithole please pass this on

Doug, you have to make a choice now, you can’t stay on the fence. Either sack him and bring someone in or Get him the assistant it sounds he wanted Chris Ramsey or someone else and bring in the experienced player he wanted (Matty James).

The inaction is killing us and making the situation ten times worse.

If it was King who made the decision about CR, it was probably because he's not convinced about Robins long term.

We can't sack a manager after every bad spell it's a ridiculous idea , if fans can behave like this towards a bloke who gave us so much success then how bad would they be with somebody that's done fuck all here

I'm genuinely appalled at how shitty some of our fans have been recently

But then sack him ffs. If you don’t believe in him have the balls to commit. Don’t let Mark work away without any of the tools because your too scared or indecisive to make a decision

You’re supposed to sit down, shut up, and clap while the most expensive city team in history gets relegated. Otherwise you’re a shit fan.

Paying attention to what a team like looks for all the world like its heading for relegation looks like. We stink of it.

Not sure who is better to lead us than the guy who was a penalty kick from the prem or an fa cup semi final or 2 promotions or maybe even the 5 top 10 finishes in 7 years when I saw a massive 2 the 30 years prior

I joke , sack the shit c**t and get somebody else in because these 11 games have taken me over the edge , fuck the 460 games before

I think it's time.

I want to watch a team that have a clear style of play. I want to be able to see on the pitch what they have been working on in training.

Robins isn't a tactical coach. He never has been. That was literally Viveash's job. MR looks tired and bereft of ideas. At this point we're just recycling through old formations trying to find something that sticks. Wouldn't be surprised if he wacks out the box next even though we've got no one to play it.

A lot of people seem to think the new coaching setup and / or the coaches are a big problem and that if Robins goes they will all go with him. I'm not convinced about that in the slightest.

Think the next appointment is more likely to be a head coach type appointment who is expected to work with the existing structure and staff.

He's posting more than ever at the moment and the theme of his posts are essentially trying to look morally superior whilst having a go at other people for expressing concern. If there's an agreement from the wider audience he'll pile on harder, but if there's any resistance he'll backtrack a bit. Depends on the thread.

All a bit strange. Definitely a workplace bully in real life.

Yup. Almost certainly. Can't see King paying all that compo

In but I do think we’re coming close to the end. The fixtures up to the international break look ominous.

If Doug is going to make a change you’d have to say that’s the logical point. Reset with no fixtures and then the new man has time to asses the squad before the transfer window.

Don’t want MR gone but even if we pick up feel like this maybe his last season.

So we're talking about someone who won't require compo, (currently unemployed), and who won't demand bringing in his own people, (desperate).

It’s not three months holiday though, is it.

Well there wasn’t one after Preston, so no.

He had an international break to work on things and then two very winnable games. Even if you discount Preston because of our record, I just don’t think either performance or result was good enough.

We’ve changed the system but it’s not helped.

I was Robins in before but this has been the turning point for me. I think he is floundering.

TBH, the record actually has no bearing on performance(s) at Preston,
